tee hee hi jim.
bad breath i have gone to lots of measures to make sure that i don't have bad breath and i am still paranoid,
but 1) drinks lots of water...... don't over saturate yourself though you have to be careful with water.... but over saturation can be very dangerous.
2)i got myself one of those, tooth scrapers and mirrors like what theyhave at the dentist, to make sure no tartar was built up between my teeth...as flossing cant remove it it needs to be scraped. (warning be careful and gentle)
3) floss all teeth.. and rinse with mouth wash,
4) a good minty tooth paste, and i put bicarbonate of soda on to it as well, brush teeth and tongue with my electric tooth brush. for 4 mins.
and then gargle with mouthwash for 2 mins.
i do all the above once a week and my mouth does feel great. takes about 10 mins max 12 mins.
during the week i floss and just brush for 2 mins. and i always have a spare tooth paste and brush at work.
thats me but i am para about oral hygiene

WOW! i didn't go that far tryer, I did have a toothbrush and paste at work. I'd brush my teeth after lunch. I chewed a lot of sugar free gum as well.
Tracy, I think it was about 3 or 4 weeks for me. You'd expect it to happen the whole time your in ketosis, but it didn't for me. I suspect everyone is different though.

VLCDing...again!
This thread is very useful, thanks guys! I bought some ketostix yesterday and Im in a nice pinky area but Hubby's was negative which he was so upset about. Its weird as we're eating the same things. Saying that, he's noticed he's not losing as much weight as I am (I lose about 0.5lbs every 2-3 days). Perhaps the sugar free jelly is the culprit?
I always know when Im in ketosis because my breath REEKS. I always get very paranoid in work in case people smell it. My sweat never smells though. Ive found my hair gets greasier but my skin in clearer whereas my hubby's skin has gone so dry. We are both definately drinking enough water. The other new thing Ive noticed with my ketosis is that...well, this is gross, but my wind smells really horrible now! (Sorry) has anyone noticed the same?
