Yep, it's ketosis and it can make your bathroom experience smelly too. But drinking lots of water helps, get some breath strips so you don't feel bad when talking to people. But most of all enjoy, because your stink is a good sign your scale will be going down.

The cake is a lie, but Starbucks is not.
OH GOD YES!!!! It doesn't happen to everyone...but when it does...it does!
The only issue was that my smells bothered me more than everyone else. But then again, my senses were heightened after surgery- I remember going into a restaurant that had a salad bar, and having to move tables, because the smell of the onions made me want to vomit. I was the only person that could smell them too.
Do keep an eye on your mouth though. It could be a yeast or bacterial overgrowth related to the antibiotics given during surgery. Thrush is very common post WLS.
