It turned a deep purple. I'm so excited, I'm on day 3 doing Atkins and really felt that it was not going to turn purple of me. So, I broke down and went and got me some ketone strips and right away they turned purple. I'm so excited, I guess this is working after all.

Try to aim for a moderate spill of ketones in your urine. Darker means you're not drinking enough water. I know...I am not that fond of water as beverage either, but ya gotta drink it.

I am not so sure, because I'm drinking at least 10 glasses of water daily. I have a water jug that takes 32 ounces and I drink two and a half, at least. That will give me at least 80 ounces of water and that's not counting the cup of water in the morning and the one that I drink during lunch at home. So I would say I'm drinking enough water. I'm new at this, so that's just a guess.

As long as you are drinking enough water you should be ok.. I drink at least 100 oz a day myself and always had darker keto strips... Also a meal higher in fat can cause them to turn darker so I have heard....

Keep up the good work...
