food to eat.

Not sure if this is the place to post this....I'm six weeks (almost seven) out. On mushy's, I'm finding eating food is a challenge. I can not find one thing that is appealing. I smell it and its like oh that smells so good but when I eat it, It's like yuck!!!! Is this normal???? I hope so. I barely can eat anything on my list that is allowed. My taste for food has so changed since being sleeved. I could see this as a positive. Any insight as to why this has happened so that I can understand and know what to expect.

I'm only 2 weeks out from surgery but from what I've read that's not abnormal at all Hopefully you will have more to eat when you get on solids. For now maybe try adding in syrups or try new things, the recipes section may have more info for you too!

I too had a great difference in taste, and at 4.5 months out I still don't enjoy many of the foods I used to. I don't know if its all psychological or if there is a physical aspect of it too.

Take advantage of it and ween yourself off all the foods we should no longer eat.

Thanks Rootman.

What I can not tolerate is almost everything on my list. I did not deviate from what my doc recomended. I can not stand canned tuna in Water, baked skinless chicken or any type of mayo. Even sf pudding taste like salt to me. The one thing I can eat is soft scrambled egg with a pinch of shredded cheese. Go figure. I can eat fresh grilled fish and sometimes that doesn't taste good. So I will just have to work with it. Hopefully I will be able to eat my Protein instead of drinking my Protein. I have no desire for any type of "bad carbs" I haven't had any starches of any kind since a week before surgery. Truely I like this part. No cravings is so awesome. Thanks again.
