Uh-oh! Did you use Atkins bars or shakes?

BUt why are the ketostix turning purple?

Purple ketostix means your body is running on fat metabolism. In principle, this is awesome... but there are several things that could still interfere with your weight loss:
- the fat burned could be body fat (the one you want to burn) or dietary fat; if you overeat, the extra calories will lead to weight gain
- foods you have an intolerance to, like aspartame, sugar alcohols, Atkins products, etc.

So i guess its all ok. Dont know is it the metabolism

If your menu was okay (no Atkins products, no aspartame, enough fat, etc.), then you can determine your degree of metabolic resistance at the end of the 14 days. But I suspect there's something fishy in your menu... I'll take a look at it after you post it.
