potatofree, what do you mean, the strips don't know the difference between dietary fat and body fat? see I've had the same problem. it's very strange really. I go all the way up to heavy on the ketosis strips. people at the gym seem to think I look leaner. I 'feel' thiner. But yet, the scale doesn't appear to have showed a change the past week. the ketosis strips are new for me so I don't know that much about them as I should.
