@roydmoonjr Sorry I have had to moderate the comments since the huge increase of Youtube comment spam lately. This is normal -- the keytones presence will change over time, and if you see any, it means in your ketosis. Difference in color could be more due to hydration levels than levels of ketones.
My weight would bounce around from time to time rather than be a consistent loss. If the 3 pound gain is still there in a week, you can send me your menus, and I can check it out.

I have a question about key tones right after I started this diet I check my key tones for about 2 weeks straight. they were runnin on that large area more towards the largest. I was checkin my way everyday and saw that I was losing so I went for 2 weeks without checking. and again I lost my key tones for still running in the large so I waited another week to check. acura chick I gained 4 pounds didn't change anything kept eaten the way I was. now my key tones are around negative to trace.

@bowulf thanks for the info I will def. get some chicken broth and give it a try ! and by the way yea for me I only had 21 carbs today and feel full and don't feel any cravings :)

@pammyglo1 The water helps, but is only half the equation to get you hydrated. In order for the water to be absorbed, you need to also take in sodium and potassium (electrolytes). That will do wonders for the hypotension and the dizziness. For potassium, a great way to take that in is with LiteSalt salt substitute. The new book recommends drinking 1-2 cups of chicken broth to help with the electrolytes.

I have been feeling dizzy and lightheaded =( I am drinking tons of water and the funny thing is I am at 30 carbs per day !! I want to get to 20 but have been worried about passing out ~ any ideas of how to avoid the dizzy feeling?

@pyunique You are likely dehydrated and electrolyte depleted at the moment. I would suggest drinking more water if you aren't getting your 64 oz in, and getting some additional sodium and potassium in your diet. (Salt and a salt substitute (like LiteSalt) work great for this.) A recommendation in the new book is to drink 2 cups of chicken broth per day to help with this electrolyte depletion too.
