Well miss sparky;
I usually try not to pee in my pants

I meant after you pee in the toilet, if there is a light right above the potty, you can see oil floating on top of the water...

I like to see it because it makes me feel like I am burning up all my stored energy and peeing it out...

I could be completely wrong... but oh well... It keeps me on track..
Your body doesn't eliminate fat by urinating. Fat is burned or metabolised by the body and ketones are an end product. Foamy urine or a slick on top can be due to protein or simply dehydration when the concentrated urine hits the water and foams up.

When I'm in Ketosis my pee smells very gross. But I will not rub coconut oil on my hoo-ha. I just can't go there.

Well the foam thing, I've never seen any foam...

And as far as dehydration goes, I usually drink AT LEAST a gallon of H2O every day... For me it's usually a gallon and a half... But a minimum of a gallon... So I don't really think I am dehydrated

Anyway, it's ok... I don't really know what it is.. but I only see it when I am low carbing... so what else would it be?

For me, it's just a oil slick on the top of the water... no foam or anything like that...

I know... I don't quite get that one either... The pee comes from the bladder. How would CO on the hoo-ha help?

You eliminate protein or lipids in your urine as I stated in the earlier post. Diabetics also spill glucose in their urine. You can Google for more info. Fat is only eliminated through the kidneys when there is a certain kidney disease present.

does it happen to men? I can see that since they have a shooting stream and are standing away from the toilet but girls with foam?

LMAO @ this thread!

The thing about the coconut oil rings true though...... it seems when I am in ketosis I always have a kind of funky feeling 'down there', i suppose when one wipes there will always be 'residual pee' down there, so I try to use wet-wipes whenever I can.

Coconut oil should help with that... just the same way I use coconut oil on my armpits, there is something in it that keeps the bacteria from growing and causing odor.

So as funny and gross as it sounds, it is something to consider!

Coconut hoo-has for everyone! LOL
