Taste buds are changin'

[luckysmomma 407]

...I am a diet coke, I freely admit it. However, I had not had a single drop since March 3, three days before my sleeve. I got through the withdrawal & headaches. I haven't craved soda at all. I am not thirsty since my sleeve and luckily not hungry...

Last week, I poured 2 or 4 oz of Diet Stewart's Rootbeer & allowed to melt into ice last week - tasted the same to me, but I didn't want any more of it to drink. I wasn't even craving it...just curiosity. It didn't make me sick or anything.

...tonight, I did the same with diet coke tonight...but it was horrible; it tasted like syrup..the way I remember a regular pepsi or coke would taste to me...I am in total shock! How could our taste buds change so? Again, I wasn't craving it or anything, just curious. It didn't make me sick.

...so I guess I am a Water drinker now...but I am not at 64 oz - not even half...

...also, I had a single Weight Watchers Laughing cow cheese tonight...best cheese I have ever eaten!

I will freely admit that I was a Pepsi! I would drink 3 or 4 large one's a day! Ugh!!! No wonder I was 300lbs!! I, also, can no longer drink them. They taste like carbonated Water to me. Yuck!! This has happened with other things as well. Milk and even turkey. Turkey does NOT taste right anymore. Weird, right??? Happy that Pepsi is no longer a temptation!!

I was a freak for Diet Dr. Pepper... Yep I would drink at least 3 a day..... I loved them.... Funny though I do not even have the slightest desire for one now. I never in a million years thought that would happen. knock on wood lol! I thought that would be my biggest struggle. My food tastes have changed as well. I used to be one of those persons that could eat the same thing for days and it would not bother me. Now forget it. I need variety.... I can not stand to repeat the same meal day after day. That is funny to me also! So yes, I agree my tastes have completely changed!

I find that it's hard to tolerate the 'preservatives' that they put in things...and that I'm craving freshly made food vs pre packaged...weird..I was not big on sodas before surgery and lately I find most things like crystal light have such a funny taste, so I've been mostly sticking to plain Water.
