Most humiliating day ever! 22 days post op..

My heart hurt too when I read this. I'm so sorry. I had an idea to maybe buy fabric softener sheets and stick one in your pocket. Also buy some type of sugar free breath mints and pop one in your mouth when talking to someone or when you know you will be. I too use muscle milk and I can tell my breath is disgusting!!!!!! Hang in there. That was a tough situation good for you to try to not let it take you down.

How rude the so called professionals were to you. I'm so sorry you we're hurt by them. I wasn't aware of Protein giving bad breath... Why is that?

I guarentee the smell is Ketosis not your drinks.

You can try keeping some mints of you but you are probably exuding it through your pours as well. Body spray isn't going to mask it. Normal BO is from the bacteria's byproducts , AKA bacteria poop. This smell is actually caused from the Ketones leaving your body as your blood dumps it. It is possible that raising your Water intake, not any fluids, plain Water, may dilute it a bit.<br /><br />Either way it will pass as your body gets regulated. Unfortunately time will not help your coworkers. They will still be A$$es.
