Food just doesn't taste good



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Dec 19th and a lot of foods just don't taste good to me anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it temporary?

Oh how I wish I was one of the lucky ones. For me, no, this was not the case. So I have to be careful of my choices on a day to day basis.

I was like that with most foods at first, but for for me I think it was mental. My brain was figuring out its new relationship with food. Now I'm only 5 months out and a lot of foods that at first made my stomach turn are good. Unfortunately I still can't eat spicy food, which kind stinks cause that's my favorite but oh well I figure its a good thing I doesn't settle we'll in my stomach cause now I don't have to worry about being cautious not to eat to much. Gotta look on the positive side. Oh ya I also can't do a lot of dairy foods anymore.

Ditto! The only difference for me is I can't eat as much....but I can eat anything I've tried & it still tastes yummy! Soo, I too must be careful! Sooo, my question is: those of us with "sleeves of steel" are we Lucky....or Unlucky?? :-/

I go thru weeks where I have dont have a taste for anything at all and some weeks where I will just eat the same thing over and over because I actually like that one for the time being. There are foods that I have no desire for anymore like bread, crackers, anything white flour. I dont have sugar cravings anymore either. When I get 'hormonal' Ill have a couple of figs, some skim milk with Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup in it for a treat or teaspoon of Peanut Butter. But thats only that time of the month, other than that time, I dont really crave sweets anymore.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
