phentermine and ketosis

[giles]

I am very confused. I was on Atkins (only 10-15 carbs a day!!)for over 2 weeks and didn't go into Ketosis at all- the Ketostix showed only a "trace"- now that I started taking 35mg. Phen in the morning,I have "small" ketone amount in my urine which is the lightest. It is still better than nothing! Does anyone have any experience here? I don't know if the phen is pushing me into ketosis or it is the atkins effect. Either way, I want to get off the pills eventually- like 3 months and I don't want the weight to come back! Please share your experience with Ketosis and Phentermine!
Thanks!

Hey thats great! Ketosis is a great place to be!

I doubt if the phen has anything to do with your body getting there. I would think think it would be your low carb intake.

Did you know that aspartime (SP) and even gum containimg it can prohibit yur body from getting into ketosis.

PM me if you have some ?'s for me
