I tried those no-carb candy bars, overindulged, and, while I didn't have the gastric distress others have reported, it nearly took me out of ketosis (from deep purple to barely pink) and I found my cravings for sweets returning.

Sorry...just gotta jump in here. I just want to mention that it makes no difference whether your ketostix are pink or purple.... you're still in ketosis. Actually, a dark or purple reading means you're probably not drinking enough water, which is why the ketones are more concentrated in your urine, giving a higher reading.
