Brushing your teeth and bad breath

I was sleeved on 7/15- I've noticed when I brush my teeth it causes weird and uncomfortable burning in my chest. Does anyone else experience this??

I also feel like my breath stinks all day long and is dry! It's annoying and gross! I don't know what to do about it! I'm brushing my teeth 2-3 times a day just like I did before surgery.

Ya I went through something similar with the bsd breath. It lasted for about a month or so. I was told it was the ketoses phase. We r buring off all the badvstuff in our body. I'm almost 3 mths out n its gone.

I am 10 weeks out and my ass breath has finally disappeared. It's ketosis, I believe and it causes a coppery smelling funk that won't go away. I used Listerine strips which covered the smell for the most part, but I swear, when I woke up in the morning, my room reeked of my breath. It was foul.

This will pass, I promise.

It is the ketones in your body. I would get it every time I did Atkins. I called it monkey ass breath. It will go away as your diet get more back to normal.

Hang in there! :)

Um...look who is almost half way to goal!!!! You go girl! Congrats!

Check your math, chicky! I am just OVER halfway. And that's my stretch goal! I would be happy at 160, 150 is a dream.

:wub:

Math is hard! In my defense, I'd only had half a cup of coffee and well, I'm special! :P

Go for your dream! I'm really proud of you. You did not have an easy go of things in the beginning!

Oh....coffee.... I haven't tried that yet. MMMmmm...

I am so happy! I can't believe how easy/hard this has been but it's been worth every minute. I can do things I haven't done in years and I'm not afraid to (literally) work my ass off at my martial arts school, at kickboxing, at the pool. AND!!! I am no longer afraid to go into the dressing room with an armful of pretty clothes because damage WILL BE DONE to my debit card. WOOOT!!
