Not sure what it is but I had it in the beginning. I just made sure I brushed my tongue well. I also heard you can get a tongue scraper to help. Now that I am farther out I do not have that problem as much. Find it gets less when I have more Water. Not sure if there is a correlation to the water or not.

The good news. You are in ketosis which means your body is burning weight at optimal performance. Continue on the way you are now and you will continue to lose weight at a rapid pace. You are going to be at goal in sooner that you think.

The bad news. You might have bad breath too. Not much you can do if you have these except brush your tounge and teeth often. Maybe sip Water more often. Even my mom told me I had halatious breath during this phase.

Rejoice, you have a furry tongue!

I have heard of people getting a black furry tongue from excessive use of mouth wash. Brushing is good but use mouth wash only as directed on the bottle. Sadly, I don't know what he did to get rid of it.

I had the furry tongue too and it was horrors for a few days but it is beginning to pass now thank god!

I think it's just because a change in diet and all those fluids!

Don't worry it soon goes.

How are you and your sister doing?

If it doesn't go away, it's a sign of thrush! Aka yeast infection but in your mouth. Just tell your doc... Sounds like it's normal post-surgery tho.
