I am a little over 3 months post-op & have lost 50 pounds since this started around April. I'm quite happy with my weight loss even though it's slow, it's been consistent with about 2 pounds a week; I have 50 pounds to go. What I'm confused with is suddenly I have stinky armpits!! It started a few weeks ago. Maybe my fat is burning up stored stinky cells?

Really? So it's not just me?

It's the bacterial byproduct of being in ketosis. I use Mitchum, too. I've been known to "freshen up" my pits with hand sanitizer 0.O

I carry Listerine, as well.

But why now? I've been in and out of ketosis for 6 months.

The bacteria are strong and concentrated! Make sure you are drinking 96oz of Water. Also try using dial soap or any antibacterial you like, daily.

Thanks for your help.

Well you could take a Lysol sponge bath with those antibacterial wipes they sell in bulk at costco. LOL!

Lol!! Cute, but I think I'll stick to showers. :-)

But...i AM having a hard time connecting the dots. How does ketosis lead to bacteria? Thanks!!
