I believe that is a result of your body being in ketosis. Not unusual.

I was experiencing the nasty taste in my mouth for the first 4 weeks. I started sucking on sugar free mints and it helped some. It wasn't until after I got 2 liters of IV fluids that the taste subsided. I'm not positive the dehydration was why my mouth tasted so bad or if I felt so much better after the fluids that it didn't bother me so much. But I don't notice the taste anymore.

It's burning fat for fuel. I use Listerine strips, they work well for ketosis breath.

Ketosis is the result of the high Protein, low carb diet that is necessary for us.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
