Week 2 no weight loss and no ketosis?

[Kelly Kennedy]

I have been on the exante diet for nearly 2 weeks now first week lost half a stone since then nothing and I got some test strips today and it is barely darker than the no ketosis line. Apart one one plain salad I haven't had anything other than the shakes. Am I doing something wrong?

I don't suppose you're quite active, are you? I know that when i started introducing exercise along with the diet my weight loss stalled for about 3-4 weeks before someone told me you're supposed to eat back any extra calories expended while you're on plan or your body goes into 'starvation mode' and tries to retain all fat and water because it thinks you're starving!
