Finally bought the ketostix at the store. I tested in late afternoon and the strip color didn't change. Tested again a few minutes ago with the same results. I plan to test again tomorrow when I get up. I guess I'm not surprised. I haven't had the ketosis breath. I wonder if my portion sizes are added to my carb count? I plan to get a food scale and start weighing and measuring everything! Also, although I try to avoid it, the culprit might be going out to eat. I really don't enjoy restaurants since starting Atkins. I feel pretty miserable not being able to order my favorites. Then again, I just remember how I was starting to get so fat I could hardly sit in the booth...
I went to a wedding yesterday. Everyone was amazed at how good I looked. We were dancing and my friend took my sweater off me because it was pretty hot. Another friend came up and grabbed me and said, "Oh my God, I didn't recognize you! You look great!!!". Everyone knows about me going to the gym and attributed the weightless to that. I was thinking how I walked 30 minutes a day for a year and only lost ten pounds. Then, I go on Atkins and lose another thirty. However, maybe the exercise toned me more. My arms actually seem to be shaping up. Maybe I won't need plastic surgery?
I already did the treadmill and am now going to walk the dog!
