And my breath is still the same. No fruity smell
Answers:
Start off with the basics - under normal conditions, you don't produce ketones. If the strip does change color at all, you're in ketosis.
If the strip is turning full purple (not just a little pink), you're producing "3+" ketones. You MUST make sure that you're drinking lots of water because this state is dehydrating.
The fruity breath is ketosis and dehydration together in most cases.
It sounds like you will still lose weight with the amount of exercise you're doing.
