Lost My Taste For Sweets?



Recommended Posts

I have really struggled with anything sweet! Especially the Protein Drinks which to me are sickly sweet

Huge sweet tooth before' date=' not so much now (and can't tolerate them). Make your own Protein shakes so you control the sweet--add extra milk or plain yogurt to cut the overly-sweet taste. Or add something non-sweet--and don't gross out, because you really won't taste it--like spinach. It will give you some great nutrition and cut a bit of the sweet. I make a killer Breakfast smoothy with Greek yogurt, almond milk (both unsweetened), spinach, a couple of pecans, and a couple of frozen cherries. Fits perfectly in my magic bullet and is SO GOOD and I don't have to mess with Protein powder, which my sleeve emphatically rejects. Can't taste the spinach--turns a not-too-pretty color, but it's delicious and not too sweet![/quote']

Whats a bullet ?

Magic Bullet. It's a mini blender that blends everything in a cup you can then drink from.

PB2 is awesome! You can throw the powder into a shake or mix it with Water to have really low call Peanut Butter. It's 45 calories for 2 tablespoons. And they have a chocolate flavor! Just Google it. You can buy from their website, Amazon or local health food or upscale stores. The manufacturer's site has a store locator.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
