I really want to make certain that I am not going to be gaining weight by eating all of this fat. I don't want my weight to be static either. I'm sacrificing too much yummy food for that. What does it mean when the ketostix come out purple? Does it mean that you definitely will be losing body fat, or can you still be in ketosis when your weight loss is halted?

I don't yet have conclusive proof that Atkins is working for me. I appear to have lost a few pounds, but for some reason I feel that my pants are tighter, not looser. I try to exercise everyday. It was raining today and I couldn't go outside. I don't know any good exercises to do inside.

So if someone could put my mind at ease that as long as my body is in ketosis I will be getting thinner I would be very grateful.

Thanks,
