Default Ketostix & Induction & Sagging Skin

Hi All,

Im new here as some will know and I am now properly and fully (I hope) in induction phase

I lost 5 pounds of weight since before being in induction, is what average?

Also I went and bought some ketostix, (great arent they?lol), and they helped me know I was in ketosis for the past few days.

A question I have is this: I seem to be at the moderate 40 mg/dl on the ketostix, so is that good and does that mean im losing fat fast?

Also have i understood correctly, that as long as im in ketosis I will be losing/burning fat?...because I keep asking if my portions are too big or small or if im satisfied rather than binging.

Also will I get sagging skin from losing weight? and if so how can I prevent this and any stretch marks or cant i?

Thank you
