Default burning oil

hey i have a 1993 cx... all stock with about 135k miles. i recently blew my head gasket and ever since i replaced the head gasket my car has been burning oil like crazy. i've been losing about 1 quart every week which is about 250-350 miles. i checked for leaks and everything and that is not the problem. it is burning oil for sure. any ideas??
