 |  Wierd taste/ breath issues
Post op-ers: At any point during the day have you gotten a wierd taste in your mouth or had a breath issue? I THINK (not sure) I am having this because I am not eating enough.  I think it happends when I am on empty. The funny thing is i cant really tell because i still dont get hungry. If i forget to eat something its pretty much just forgotten until i remember.
but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? AM i nuts? I am trying to stay away from the sugar free hard candies and mints (bad habbit) and am just looking for other ideas...DOC please let me know if this is normal.

Looks like Lisa beat me to the punch. 
Sounds like ketotic breath. Yup, water, keeping yourself well hydrated should help you a lot.
Happy losing!  | |

No, it's fine, we don't mind if the Qs are repeated. Since you all are on different stages of the journey, you'll have your Qs at each your own timing. As the posts keep going up, some of the older threads and posts are going to get buried, so repeat posts will happen. Better to repeat, than to keep it to yourself, and feel lost for it.

Also know that when you are in this stage you are burning fat. Not too bad a trade off if you ask me.

Kenyar, I am right there with you. It is horrible but like Spikey states it is a tradeoff I am willing to take.
But you know what my nose is super sensitive, I can smell the breath of everyone around me. That is not fun!
