Guest guest Posted September 15, 2001 Report Share Posted September 15, 2001 Subject: 2 questions 1. I have been in ketosis for over a week but the scale won't change. Can I do anything but wait? 2. Does anybody have the url for ketostix on sale? TIA. This group has me really believing that this time will be different - that I will stick with it and actually lose weight!

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2001 Report Share Posted September 15, 2001 Barbara, I'm definitely not an expert on the ketostix but perhaps you're eating a really high amount of fat (higher than normal for someone on low carb) and that is what is turning the stix. I don't know for sure. Maybe post your menues for a couple of days and let folks take a look-see. Also, be sure you're using Ketostix (and not Diastix or whatever)... most folks seem to agree on Bayer brand being the most reliable but that's the only ones I've ever used so I'm not sure. Maybe your scale has a problem - I know mine sure does... it never wants to go low enough ;-) Wish I had better " answers " for you. -Marlena 214.5/159.8/150 > >Reply-To: Atkins_Support_List >To: " atkins " <Atkins_Support_List (AT) Yahoo> >Subject: 2 questions >Date: Sat, 15 Sep 2001 08:22:21 -0600 > >1.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2001 Report Share Posted September 15, 2001 Dear barbara you can tell us what you are eating /and the amounts and you can also take measurements the scale doesnt always move but you could be getting smaller and you can wait too and i dont use ketostix i can tell when i am in ketosis without it as you will be able to eventually catherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Hi , I have had touble with slurring speech since last Oct/Nov. I was more noticable later in the evening. But in the last few days it has gotten much worse. Not sure why. I'm hoping its allergies, but I have a feeling not. I was dx PLS in March, so I am learning along with everyone else. Take care.
