does anyone else have this problem. I'm brushing my teeth 4 to 5 Times a day.

Yes. I was like gatdamn. I'm just brushing and using listerine and chewing gum.

If this is something you've only experienced recently, most likely it is due from eating low carbs. Ketosis can cause foul breath... unfortunately. Sadly, there really isn't much you can do aside from scraping your tongue, constantly brushing your teeth or perhaps the listering breath strips.

Good news is it doesn't last forever. Mine usually lasts only a week or two when I put myself back in that state.

All the best!

Are you still in the liquid phase with all the protein shakes and such? This happened to me also and will subside when your diet gets a bit more normal. I kept gum and mints on hand.

Still on all liquids can't stay out of bathroom I'm miserable. The breath, going to bathroom all the time, can't sleep and just got out of hospital after a four day stay. I pray everyday I made the right decision.

Yes, as LilMissDiva stated, ketosis, and it gets worse post-op.

Also try a tongue scraper, then mouth wash and finally brush your teeth, the roof of your mouth and your tongue.

It lets up after a few months and your system starts to stabilize. BTW: It's due to caloric shortfall - the diet - and not the surgery per se.

Uggg. Had no idea so much was going to change with my body.

Hang I there. I'm 4 days out. I almost have to meditate my self through every sip. I've founding really have to stretch myself up straight to help it all go down. I trying to look at it through the perspective that this will retrain my brain to eat consciously, which I never done. Try sugar free gum and a good mouth rinse. Keep walking, that will help you remember your reasoning in the first place. Also try to find a you tube string by one person. It helped me a lot to see the transition in people's bodies and attitudes. The decision is done, so don't look back, just do everything you can to enjoy what it will do for you. WE will all get through this.

Yes! I started brushing with baking soda/powder! It's now much better.

Thanks for advice!
