My mouth is gross!
The bad breath may be ketosis. It just means you're burning fat.
The thick film may be thrush, though, which is a fungal infection (it's actually a type of yeast infection, just in your mouth instead of your vagina, isn't that lovely?). It's not uncommon after surgery. Call your doc. It's usually not hard to treat.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.

I kept sugar free gum on hand constantly at first, now I have it stashed strategically.
HW333--SW 289--GW of 160 5' 11" woman. I only know the way I know & when you ask for input/advice, you'll get the way I've been successful through my surgeon & nutritionist. Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way. Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!
