Certain foods and changes



Recommended Posts

Has anyone else noticed a change in taste buds ? Also has anyone noticed not tolerating certain foods anymore ?

I noticed that I started having that prior to surgery. I think it was the 6 month diet. I literally cut out all soda and all fast food. I started experimenting with healthy foods and found some stuff that I love. Now when I have a food craving it's for hummus or bruschetta or cottage cheese and peaches. And of course I can't eat any of that yet :)

Right before my surgery I splurged and ate a steak which was awesome, but then I also tried a Wendy's cheeseburger and McDonalds fries which I have always loved, and they both tasted awful to me!!!!

I used to love prosiciutto but it was way to salty spit it out. Also sick of sweet drinks. I feel like I can smell and taste things exactly as they are had some of a real popscile the sugar was so gross, It is funny sometimes I think my sleeve turned me into a warewolf lol

It is certainly true. I used to love peach and banana flavors for most my adult life in yogurt, drinks, etc. after being sleeved, these no longer appeal to me and makes me a little nauseous. I used to love the banana creme light yogurt!!

I loved seafood before surgery, now shrimp doesn't taste as good. Crab makes me sick. Milk makes me sick.I was never a big fan of milk to start with. Green Beans and corn make me sick which I did like. I cant stand sugar of any type I can t stand carbonated drinks now. Haven't even tried the carbonated drinks just the thought of it gags me. Sweets tried some tea after surgery that had sugar in it after surgery and it made me sick. I liked sweet tea before surgery not anymore. I will eat stuff with chives in it now. Never liked chives. I eat stuff with onion now never liked onion before. I was always a very picky eater. My husband and I have been married almost 20 years and he is just shocked and amazed at my eating habits changing. Thanks for all the input. I don't feel alone now.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
