Every since my surgery i have noticed i no longer like some of the same foods i used to eat. Like chicken i could eat that every day. Now i cant stand the taste of it. But now tonight my husband made pork chops which i never eat. I tried one bite and liked it. Same with sugar free stuff. I used to hate it now i like it. Just wondering if anyone else has gone through a change like this

I noticed the same thing since getting the sleeve. Right after the surgery I could drink the clear Protein drinks without any problem but after a month I can't drink anything sweet without getting nauseated. I have started diluting all the Vitamin waters (which helps to get the daily Water requirement!) because they are too sweet also. I used to eat tapioca pudding before the surgery but since the surgery, I can't tolerate the taste. I haven't noticed any change in the taste of meat but I haven't eaten much variety yet, mainly chicken, turkey and ham. Beef is hard to digest for me so I don't try it too often.

For me I noticed two changes and one has disappeared and the other seems to have diminished. The first was Water. I used to enjoy plain Water but after surgery I could not stand the taste. I had to add koolaid drops or crystal light to be able to drink it. Now I enjoy plain water again. The other was that some things seemed extremely sweet to me but now it does not seem as bad.

My mom had the surgery 14 years ago and she said her tastebuds changed DRASTICALLY. Going from loving milk to not going near it. Many many changes. Me.. If I see a burger I gag XD

      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.
