Why do you need to be in ketosis if you're on a VLCD?

Hi

Well I'm on day 5 and still focused although doing the weekly shop for my family last night was a challenge - especially as I was hungry at the time! Note to self - "don't shop when you're hungry"!!

Hi All.. . In the first week of a VLCD you can lose a tremendous amount of weight, this can be seen daily on the scale, dropping 1-2 or even 3lb each day. Although encouraging and this makes you feel immediately lighter - this is not a true fat loss.
