    Bad taste in my mouth!

    I havent successfully stuck to adkins since 2005. At which point I lost 60 pounds in about three months, to then turn around and get pregnant! Ive gained that back plus more! I attempted to restart adkins in Dec but failed to stick to it.

    Im back on the wagon now, but I have a question. Im on day 3 of induction, and I have an awful nauseating taste in my mouth. My stomach has been turning in circles all morning and Im wondering if this is normal. I just dont remember this from the first go round.

    If it is normal, PLEASE give me some advice on how to over come this! Im almost at the point that I wanna grab a mountain dew! (I remember that it seems to solve all physical and mental ailments!)

    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    I can't really help, but on Atkins it is normal to have that bad taste in your mouth. Dr. Atkins wrote about this in the book (DANDR 2002). It's one of the "secondary effects" of the Atkins diet.

    Happy Atkins-ing!

        I'm not sure whether it disappears or you just get used to it. I did Induction ages ago and can't remember how long it lasted... maybe the first week or so? It depends on every person, I guess. Brush your teeth often, use dental floss and mouthwash more often and drink a lot of water.

          I had that taste in my mouth for the first week or so. I noticed it was worse when I had cheese. I cut back on the cheese and ate extra veggies. Water helps too. Another thing I did to get my mind off of it, I bought teeth whitening trays, they don't taste good either but it was better than the other taste that was lingering. Plus my teeth were whiter too!!!

            Great information. Thanks! And I just got through eating cheese so that may have been the culprit!

            Thanks so much
