Default Lipolysis Testing Strips
permalink
I went to Wal-Mart today and all I could find was Ketone Test Strips. Is this the same thing as Lipolysis Testing Strips?

If so, when I did the test my results came out to be moderate. I read the information provided in the box with the test strips and it says, "If the test shows a moderate or large amount of ketone, call your doctor or diabetes educator". So why does it say this? Do I need to call my doctor?

If I am in Ketosis should I not be losing weight at this point or is it possible to be in Ketosis and not lose weight? This is day 9 for me and I have not lost. I have been exercising and made the adjustments suggested on here after posting my menu.

Also, I have not experienced the bad breath. Is this a sign that my level of Ketones or not high enough or am I just lucky?


Thanks
