CKD feel sick

[ThEHiTMaN187]

Well i feel better now i just noticed i am like a baby now LOL i get cranky around meal time when i am hungry but after i am full i am fine!! LOL I am sure i will wake up tomorrow and feel shitty.. i can't wait to get my Ketostix to see if i am actually in ketosis or pretending to be.... would it be possible after maybe 1 week of less then 20 carbs a day to start to introduce them back into the diet say to 100G's i miss my bread and Milk and stuff..... also this diet seems to get rid of weight fast does that mean as soon as u quit the diet it comes back even faster?

Dont remember were i got this info but I started taking magnesium and potassium and feel 1000 times better when on low carb also a multi vitamin.....something about electrolites. But it works also taking l-glutamine really helps with any cravings.

I think i read somewhere that l-glutamine knocks you out of ketosis. Ya better check on that one there.

What are Ketostix and how do you use them? Where can you buy them too? Do you piss on them or something and it checks the levels of amonia in your piss? I've never heard of them... tell me more... I'd like to know weather or not I'm in Ketosis... I barely eat any carbs
Thanks

Ketostix or urinalysis strips are pissed on and change color depending on what level of Ketosis u are in. The color codes are on the side of the bottle. You can get them at any drug store for around $20 beind the pharmacy counter. As long as you show something positive, you are in ketosis, The larger amount of ketones doesn't always mean better. It might just mean you are dehydrated. So any positive reading is what you want to be at. I personally have tested only small amounts of ketones. Also, you will know you are in ketosis by your bad breath and your awful smelling piss. The piss kinda smells fatty almost, cuz you are passing the ketones through your urine. Hope this helps
