Brushing Teeth

Does anyone else feel like they brush their teeth constantly? I was perfectly fine brushing my teeth twice a day before surgery, now i feel like I need to brush them every time I eat because of the blah taste I get in my mouth. It's not bad breath, it's not dry, it just blah and hard to explain.

Yes!! I brush constantly, it's like never ending fear of having bad breath. Even in the hospital the first thing I asked for was a toothbrush.

I had that feeling too for the first few weeks. Once I started eating regular food it seemed to subside and now I don't have that feeling anymore. Your entire body has to readjust! I even started to have back pain due to my spine being used to carrying all that extra weight and then losing rapidly, it needed time to adjust. Best of luck and know that you are not alone in your feelings.
