[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 42515, member: 816"] need to clarify something. ketosis is a metabolic or maybe chemical state that your body enters when it isn't taking in enough glucose for energy so it starts burning fat. you typically get your glucose by breaking down carbs (sugars and starches). cut those down to a certain level (some say %) and then your body turns to its fat reserves for its glucose. ketones are produced when the body turns its fat to glucose. "keto" is simply sort of a fad word that has become associated with a type of diet that encourages your body to start turning fat into glucose. so, this isn't necessarily a "fad" diet. its something that has been known forever. it became mainstream a while back when atkins got popular because some people started becoming aware of the changes in their body when they were on high protein, high fat, low carb diets. it is noticeable. i notice it from a slightly tangy taste in my mouth. after reading about it, i think its caused from the acid build up. but, after it happened the first time and i was talking to a buddy in the medical field who was actually in the first challenge with me, i was able to tell almost immediately the next couple of times. and it most certainly was correlated with an increase in weight loss. the first time it happened it wasn't intentional and i was shedding a pound every 2 or 3 days. and it wasn't water weight.
