Need help reading the darn sticks!

I'll just start out asking for forgiveness because I am dumber than dirt (apparently) about these urinalysis sticks. I just bought them. Mine are Bayer Diastix. All the stuff I am finding talks about Atkins brand sticks which turn pink or purple. Mine start out teal blue and go to dark brown. When I test, it is teal blue which is the lowest possible meaning I am negative for ketones.

Would someone PLEASE PLEASE explain to me if that is what I desire? I started Atkins 4 days ago and I have not cheated at all. I have stayed well under 20 grams of carbs every day. The scale hasn't moved YET though. I am not discouraged but I would like to understand what this darn stick is telling me!

Thank you all in advance for putting up with a newbie.

Cindy
