 |  Yucky Mouth I am 4 days post op and feeling pretty good BUT I always have the worst taste in my mouth. Brushing provides only temp relief. Any suggestions on what I can have at this stage to make my mouth taste better. I am thinking that this will also help with the nausea.  |

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Halitosis from Ketosis (burning fat)....increase your water intake and this will subside...it's a good sign...it's your body burning fat cells!!! I usually take in about 75-100 ounces of water a day....my breath initially was HORRIBLE...I think I have a post about this somewhere around here! |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   | honestly, the taste will be there for a while. the only thing that made it "go away" was constantly drinking. eventhough it tastes bad, its a good thing. ketosis i think they called it?? means you are burning fat

5' 6" Height: | Water is the ticket right now. You might want to be careful with any kind of sugar free candy. Some of them can cause GI problems. Hang in there. Things will get better.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Lord child yes! That is horrible i know. I delt with it. Drink like they say. Now I was allowed a sugar free mint. That helped some. You better ask if that is ok first. Even when my hubby kissed me I thought it was sooooooo nasty. |

| Super Moderator  | As Kath and Kenyar says, you're experiencing ketotic breath, which I'm afraid will continue for a while. It's actually proof that you are burning fat--which means you will be losing your extra fat. The best way to deal with this is water, and lots of it, as the ketones will dissolve in water and then leave your body through your urine instead of leaving through your mouth.
