Talking Are you a stripper?

As a male stripper , I thought I'd see how many of us there are here.

Remember, folks, the first rule of Strip Club is -- you MUST talk about Strip Club!

LOL, I didn't realize what this was about until I opened it!!

Never stripped - early on I was too embarassed to seek out strips in a pharamacy, then I had good results and it seemed pointless, then I got the bad breath, then I moved to far into OWL to be in keotosis. And I am glad things turned out this way - they seem to be more trouble then they are worth!

I'm no stripper, but my well toned legs do look great in a pair of heels. Just kidding. . .

But seriously, I gotta agree with Rydia, "I don't need no shtinkin' strips."

I tend to use the strips for a day or two a few times a day and then when I've established that I'm in ketosis the strips kind of fall by the wayside. Now see, I THOUGHT this thread was going to be about real stripping, such as - do you wear less clothing the more weight you lose - which I definitely do ~ You can always tell when I've put on a few pounds because my skirts get longer, and I start wearing blazers!

When I started 2 years ago. I stripped every morning with out fail but found them to be inaccurate. One day they would almost purple and the next barely pink. I spoke a pharmacist and he said that they were not always dependable. If they are old that they may not provide an accurate reading. So, quit using them. You had me going. Great thread.

I am trying to break the habbit. I will go for days without checking - then I start back. It is almost worse then a scale addiction.

Guess I'm a stripper I use them when adding new foods. I love knowing how my body responds to the food that day, rather than down the road.

Dammit, I wanted to see buff, half naked men! Now I'm all dissapointed. Never used the strips you're referring to.

Hi my name is Sheila and I am a stripper

I test every am and sometimes during the day, several times on weekends. In 10 months I have gone through several bottles of test strips. I often skip the scale but never the strip.

There, I have confessed, I feel much better now

The only time I strip is to get on the scale in the morning (and to take a shower, of course).
