Default Ketosis...questions

Whats it all about then?

I'm on 2nd week now, day 3, of induction and yet to experience the tiredness, stinky breath etc etc that alot of the naysayers say happens.

1. Is this normal?
2. Is it different for everyone?
3. If its inevitable then is there a time when it ends or throughout this diet will you be experiencing this?

My main aim is to lose a couple of stone, was 16 now 151/2 yay me!, so was intending to do 2 to 3 weeks induction, then the next phase then the last bit, all in all around 6 months then go onto a much more balanced regime.

The one good thing thats come out of all this so far for me at least is the balance, 3 meals a day, no snacking and lots of water.

My big concern is this ketosis thing....speaking to a vet the other day and they said if they have any animals in with high levels of ketones in they're up on an IV drip before you can say....etc

Thanks in advance.
