Bad Breath/Taste in mouth-sleeved June 22



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, new here. I was sleeved last Monday. Ever since then I have the most awful metallic taste in my mouth, and bad breath!!! Does anyone else have this???? I was told it might be from dehydration, but I certainly taking in enough fluids...although not the required amount..:(

They say to drink more Water to dilute the concentration of ketones...because ya know, you're not drinking nearly enough water already (yeah right????). You can also chew on some parsley...awesome right?! LOL

I think it's safe to say that we ALL have ketosis breath. If it's not one thing it's another...I guess I'd rather have dragon breath than my current large self. I'm sure if you hang with other VSG survivors they won't even notice????. Good luck!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
