Default Question about Ketostix

I just now got around to getting the stix. I lost 6lbs right away on my induction (I'm convinced that was water weight) and now I'm on day 10 and remain the same. Tested with stix 2 days and show the TRACE color. Do I have some hidden carbs somewhere---- shouldn't I get more purple??? Have been very careful about what I eat and can't find carbs. Carb intake now is 15 or less. Any suggestions ?
Ellie

Hi Ellie - there is a ketostix discussion going on right now here

My bottom line is, have fun with this first bottle, and then don't buy any more.

(P.S. along the orange bar at the top either in the TIPs or the tools there is a piece on ketosis)

Have a great day (I see you are an early riser too!)

Thanks Sponge !!
Wasn't even going to buy them but thought I would need them as I add carbs. to see where I stand. I will check the "bar" for some enlightenment.
Was here early but just have a fast few minutes most AM's.
Sorry I missed the chat---- have tried to get in a few times when one or more was in there but can never get in. Might be something I'm doing wrong or not doing ( so new at this)
Thanks again Ellie
