About the ketone strips don't worry to much about them.. Hydration has a lot to due with the results.. When i started Atkins I tested just 3 days in and they were as purple as it gets but I was also dehydrated since All I used to drink was coke... Then when I started doing the whole drink the right amount of water thing it dropped down to a small trace...I read that proper hydration can remove some trace of the ketones... So if you can feel ketosis but cant see it on the strip its not such a bad thing!!
