You might want to skip the Atkins bars for now. I know they tend to throw me out of Ketosis. Not sure why, but they do.

sorry I dont follow Atkins but I keep hearing this word Ketosis. What is it? Do I need it in my life? ;)

thanks Draglist. Did a quick search around the forums and it seems this subject is a hotbed for pushing peoples buttons. This will save another lengthy heated discussion for sure :)

Darlene, I agee about the Atkins bar 100%. IT IS NOT A GREAT FOOD CHOICE! It doesnt kick me out of ketosis but the sugar alcohol makes me gassy. That can't be good. I have 3 that I had as emergency... I don't think I will buy more.

You guys can you give me the idiot's version of how do you get into ketosis? I am fascinated by this and just don't get it!

thanks Draglist! Ok on the theory but how do you get into ketosis? is it by eating super low carbs and lots of fats??? how long are you supposed to stay in that phase before moving on?

TULIP...are you familiar with the quote:Give a man a fish,he eats for a day. Teach the man to fish,he eats for a lifetime. ? There is nothing like researching what we do not know in order to find the answers to our questions. :D

Tulip one site you may find interesting is Diet Doctor also do a search on ketosis as there is so kuch info out there. In my case I have gone through a series of discoveries and experiments to find what ketosis means for me. I also went to a site (imthink per draglist suggestion) to help figure out my macros (ratio of fat /protein/carbs) iifym.com. I am still learning everyday but for me the right ketosis formula seems to be underm1400 cal and roughly 35 % protein, 60% fat and 5% carb. It will be different for everyone based on many factors so it is important for you to find what I call your "ish". I hope that helps to point you in the right direction.
