So I go to the doc today for my two week check up and he tells me to show him my tongue. Thought it was odd but I did it anyway. He then tells me I have thrush! Great! Now I have to take a mouthwash 4 times a day until itgoes away. Anyone else have this? He said it is fromt he antibotics. I thought it was from the nasty protein drinks!
On a good note I have lost 11 pounds so far and can move on to mushy foods!

 SO jealous that you get to move onto mushies!  I can't wait.

Thrush is a yeast that flourishes after the good bacteria in your body are destroyed by the antibiotics.  It's sorta gross.  I was worried I had it and asked my doc about it yesterday but he said my white tongue looked ok.  My mouth tastes nasty from being in ketosis, but I'll take the fat burn!

Good luck with it.  Hopefully it's gone very soon.

 Bonnie's right.  Anything with live and active cultures is good for thrush.  Jello makes a sugar free choc pudding that has live and active cultures.

I think I may have it too. I'm going to try the yogurt for a while to see if it clears up on its own.
