That would be nice if it were true, but unfortunately, it's not.
Eat too much low-carb food, and you won't lose anything.

Ketostix can't tell the difference between ketones from bodyfat
and ketones from dietary fat.



Also, keep your carb level too low and you run the risk of dropping
your leptin output to almost nothing. Leptin seems to be key to fat
loss.
