Maybe Keto Breath rearing its Ugly Little Head, may have it for a while until Your Rapid Fat- Burning slows a LITTLE, keep washing out with Mouthwash and PLEASE believe me, You have the Taste but it's doubtful anyone else can smell ANYTHING. Just a small price to pay for all the things that are wonderful coming true in your LIFE.

I thought it was from not eating food with any substance in the 1st couple of months. As I added more food choices that required more chewing I noticed that it went away.

No, I haven't experienced that.

Probably Ketosis. I had to for about 2 months following surgery. Good luck!

Ketosis. It should go away when you get further out and are eating more carbs. Meanwhile, mouthwash should help. I used Biotin mouthwash a lot since it increases saliva.

If it's a metallic of some kind, very likely Vitamins. Have gone through it many times off and on over the years, particularly if taking them before eating or without food at all.

Would think Iron would be the Worst offender, but Vitamins 3rd, Ketosis Second.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
