I might be the only one, but its making me crazy!



Recommended Posts

It really might be just me, but my breath is nasty! I brush my teeth all day long, mouth washes, salt Water to wash it out. I'm huge on personal hygiene so it's making me crazy!!!!!!!! My husband says he can't tell but I know he is being nice, plus his last tour in Iraq I think messed his sniffer up. But my kids will say " mommy your breath stink" I stand feet away from people and hold my breath if they go in for a hug ( like at church). I am 4 weeks out today and it's been the past 2 weeks it has got crazy! It's like it's in the back of my month and I hate it! I guess what I'm saying is, am I the only one?, will it get better, why is it going on and what can I do for it??!!!

I can relate.

<-----Stinky Breath here.

On Monday night my ex BF came over to wath movies and informed me my breath was like drangon breath, and I had just brushed my teeth right before he came over. The only saving grace is that he is a personal trainer and know about ketosis. At least he understands. But it makes me very self conscience at work.

My ex told me not to worry it will eventual go away, but then he added, "like in six months"

How am I ever going to date with breath like this?

It's horrible but it happens to most of us. It's caused by your body going into ketosis, the fat burning phase that sees you lose a good amount of weight. It passes but keep your mouth wash handy :-))))

Try eating some parsley, it helps with bad breath. I added it to my green juices when my ketosis was really bad.

You will know when it hits. Trust me.

High Protein diets and fasting are blessed by this. When I fasted in the old days I was very peaceful partially because folks stayed away from me with their hassles. :huh:

When you add more carbs further down the line when your capacity enlarges it should clear up. I get lots of kisses now. ;)

That's the ketosis smell. The dastardly condition causes your two ends to match in that regard. :wacko:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
