Thanks all....wow, haven't had this much response since my weird poopoo thread

It makes perfect sense that the smell may be ketones if it comes from the lungs. That would explain why I get it so strongl all at once. I guess at the moment they are released I must get the whiff.

I also quit smoking recently and my nose is more sensitive than usual. Gee, I wonder if I always smelled like this.

Everyone always refers to it as being bad, but this is not bad at all. Seems like Atkins said this too.

More water! Gads zooks. I am already drinking 66 oz of water and another 50 of tea. I will float. But worse, I go to the pot too often now. If it gets any worse, I will up the water.

BTW Nat,

I lost a pound last night. I ate only 4 carbs Wed and .6 Thur and that dropped me down. Thanks for your advise, I am trying to add some calories (boy that is something I thought I would never hear me saying). heehee...also today I found myself reaching for the good old pork rinds and saying to myself, "at least they don't have anything in 'em but calories!"
