I'm glad to know others have plateaued for a bit at the third week. I have just lost 9 pounds but I seem to be stuck now at 201. I just found out from these forums that some of those "hidden carbs" in things (like coffee!) may be the problem. Do you think it is important to give up that one cup of coffee in the morning?
What about these ketosis strips? I'm staying "in" but I don't seem to graduate to the darker color hues on the strip. What does that mean? Is dark purple a goal? Does it matter, as long as you stay in ketosis?
Thanks for all the input.
