Yes I did experience that. It could be that your in ketosis from low carbing. Great for weightloss but bad for your breath and sweat too. When you get closer to goal and are getting more healthy carbs it will improve. Small sacrifice for getting healthy and looking great. Until then altoids help.

Looked it up and its because I have completely cut out carbohydrates and your body is burning fat because there is nothing else for it to burn like it use to so bad breath is one of the things that happen but it levels out and gets better when you start eating more balance everything out

Biotine toothpaste and mouthwash are lifesavers...

I had it wicked bad for the first month. I'm about 6 weeks post-op and it's subsided. It was really bad -- hubby said it was like a force field of bad breath around me, no matter how much I brushed, flossed, and used Listerine strips. Even I got grossed out by my breath!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
