Your not alone. I had my surgery on the 8th and have gotten to where I carry my toothbrush with me all the time now. Those protein shakes leave some kind of bitter aftertaste that coats the tongue..quite gross lol. Good luck with your journey!

Ketosis.

And I wish I could say it gets better. I'm 3 months out and I carry mints because my breath will smell funky at awkward times.

It is a good sign though

Quite normal. It is a result of ketosis. It is temporary, as the weight loss slows the breath will clear up too.

It is likely ketosis which is a result of your diet being short of carbs; it will clear up as your diet broadens, or if one is intent on doing one of the low carb diets, when you get closer to maintenance and start widening your diet. Some take it as a good sign that "you are burning fat" (which is true - sorta; it is also a sign that you are not eating your vergetables!) but it is not essential to burning fat or losing weight.

Ketosis is the culprit. I had my surgery 2 and 1/2 weeks ago and since I have advanced my diet to the soft/mushy foods it has gotten a bit better. I have also noticed that the more fluid that I drink the less offensive I feel my breath is.

oh yes, buy a tongue scraper
