Halitosis Hell

[nursebeccarn 26]

Ok guys, I need help... So far I'm a pretty happy girl... I had surgery on Friday, I'm down 15 pounds already and loving my choice to revise to the sleeve every minute.... Except the bad breath. I have NEVER had this issue before, but recognize this as a common occurrence with ketosis and extreme diet modifications. When does this go away and how are you dealing with this? It doesn't seem to matter how many times I brush, swish and spit, or if I eat twenty sf mints a day nothing helps... Frustrating.

Hang in there. It sucks, but resolves on it's own when you're eating a healthier and more balanced diet.

I had to use listerine to help with that. It wasn't as bad after swishing around with it. It will get better with time.

I am having this same problem. Is it ok to use those strips if I'm still on liquids?

Buy a tounge scraper! And brush several times a day!

I'm sure the strips are fine as they dissolve in your mouth and you're not actually swallowing them. I brush three to four times a day, and almost always have a mint in my mouth... Hope this goes away soon! My poor boyfriend! LOL
