Bad Body Odor & Smelly Yellow Urine?

Hi there,

On Day 2 of the SBD and I've noticed that I'm beginning to have really bad body odor, especially when I workout, and my urine is close to bright yellow and smells. Is this normal? Does this mean that I'm burning fat or is this something to be concerned about? Thanks in advance for your comments.

Did you eat any asparagus? That can cause urine to have a strong odor. Also, B vitamins can cause it to be very bright yellow. That's all I know though, maybe someone else has more info.

Hi,


You could be in ketosis.

If this persists or becomes really worrysome for you, make sure you talk with your doctor. Keytosis is generally something you want to avoid. You can read up about it on webMd.

Make sure you keep up the water! :)
