"hi my name is Douglas and I have just found out that you could loose
weight
with ketosis and just eating meat for each of my meals. I just started
this
diet lunchtime Friday October 28, 2005. I just have one chicken
drumstick
for each meal and that's it. I also drink 100 ounces of fresh water
each
day. please let me know if I am doing this right . I also purchased
ketosis
strips from my local pharmacy, I checked it last night as soon as I got
home
from the store and it turned out negative.
   sincerely,
                   Douglas "

No, your doing it all wrong and it's unreasonable to expect somone to
explain the correct way to lose weight with LC to you in a newgroup.
I suggest you get a copy of Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution and read it.
It only costs $6 in paperback.

Hi Douglas, welcome to the group!

While you probably WILL lose weight eating that way, you will also
probably get sick or, at the very least, exremely exhausted (not to
mention constipated).  You do need SOME carbohydrates for energy (at
least 20 grams per day).  You also need them for fiber and vitamins.  
Also, what you are eating will not provide enough calories per day for
you to function properly.  The extreme deprivation alone is dooming this
method for failure -- it's not sustainable, so when you go back to
eating the same way as before, the lbs will pile back on.  

It sounds as if you heard a rumor or gossip somewhere and are basing
your plan on that.  That is NOT a good idea.  If you want to base your
diet on ketosis, pick a plan such as Atkins, South Beach, Carbohydrate
Addicts, etc., get the book and follow THAT plan.  

I was just browsing the Google groups and found another of your posts .. the
one where you asked if there was a way to uncap your Road Runner internet
service.  They told you there to poke around in your cable modem with a
paper clip until the blue smoke was released from the capping mechanism ...

I guess the equivalent here would be to tell you to keep eating just meat
until your kidneys fall out.
