Carrie, many things will effect those test strips; what you've eaten, if you've worked out, how much water you drink, and when you test.

If you get a reading of positive then accept that and don't worry about testing again. Ketosis is ketosis is ketosis; no matter the colour. Lighter is better; negative doesnt mean you're not burning fat. Some people never register on those things and lose weight regardless. Many people following Protein Power have never even heard of them; the Eades give the topic of Ketosis 2 paragraphs in their book. It just isnt that important. If you're losing and your clothing is getting bigger on you that's all that matters.

Testing and getting a positive result can be motivating when starting out. But you'll find as you go along the whole process loses it's appeal; you know this WOE is working by how you feel. Keep eating right, exercising and drinking your water; don't become a slave to a little piece of plastic
