I called a pharmacist about ketosis and stix...

She said "water consumption has no effect on ketosis level shown on the stick."

So, I'm going with the Aktin's explanation. The color indicates how effectively your body is burning stored fat. If you drink a gallon of water, the color of the stix will not be lighter because of it!
