Ketosis breath- funny



Recommended Posts

My husband commented a few day ago about my stellar breath and told him I'm trying to get to of it, but it keeps coming back! I'm only 7 days post op so still full liquid diet.< /p>

Well tonight he kissed me and gave me that oh god face and I stated laughing and said "it's ketosis breath" and he said " oh honey who told you that? That's halitosis"! Lmao!!!!

I used my ketosis breath as a weapon; when my husband was being a smartass I'd threaten to breath on him. LMAO

Mine stinks too! I miss gum, but at least breath mints and brushing my teeth like 5 times a day helps a little.

Can someone expand on what your talking about...My surgery date is April 3, I have gone through all the testing, the nutrition class, etc. I have the pre-op medical meeting left to do but as of yet I haven't heard anyone mention ketosis breath!!

That pretty much describes it. i use those film mints that just melt on your tongue. They're pretty strong and keep a fresh taste for a while.

Ketosis breath is good, just a rather unfortunate sort of signal your burning fat.

Not sure if you can add chlorophyll to your Water (don't see why not) but that always helped me.

Also makes b.o go away and just deodorizes from the inside out.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
