Wink ~Questions while I journey through Induction~

Hi everyone!!!!

I have already posted a bit about me in the Introduction and Buddy List sections. Basically, I'm trying to do the Induction for 1 month exactly until Sept. 5th. I started August 5th.

First two days I had low-carb tortillas which apparently are a no-no. So today is my first clean clean cleaaan day!

I made this thread in case I have some questions and whatnot that others can't answer in the Buddy List or whatev.

My first Q is about ketostix. Is it too early to test? I don't really taste an overwhelming metal taste but my tooth do feel weird. I am very excited to be in ketosis and just want to know...
