Horrible taste

Someone please tell me this is a result of this cold I just started getting last night. Everything that I drink tastes horrible and is leaving an aftertaste. I hope when the cold goes the tastebuds move back in ????

    I think it's ketosis. No carbs makes your body go I to ketosis and everything tastes medicinal. It's gross.

Colds can definitely hose up your senses of taste and smell.

I haven't noticed this yet myself, but a lot of the people in my bariatric support group have mentioned their tastes in food changing after surgery, so that might also be a culprit.

Is it a metallic taste in your mouth? That could be a result of being in ketosis, which is generally good for weight loss but does leave a funky taste in one's mouth.

I hope you get over the cold soon. Best wishes!

I am having the same problem.every time i eat something there is a horrible taste in my mouth...even Water tastes bad.

i am having small morsels chewing well...eating Protein...loosing weight also...but this taste..

I had the same thing. It will go away. Its from the Anesthesia, it can cause a bad taste from all the chemicals.
