im on my first day of my second week... my friend who has done the diet suggested that buying ketosticks was the best way to keep you honest and on track....amazon has them for like 15 bucks ... i get mine in two days....wee...

good luck sonolady D:

Re: Ketostix

I have not used them but lots of experienced dieters on the forum recommend NOT using them. Once the body gets used to ketosis and if you are drinking the required amount of water they will not register and this is then yet another source of stress.

If you follow the sheet and measure you're veggies raw you're in ketosis.

Yep, measure raw. And your meat, too. No wonder you've been feeling stuffed!
