I was wondering if anyone else had a change in the way food tastes and smells since they have gotten their band or am I the only one and need to be checked by my primary care.

Thanks

My taste for some foods changed and I've read others who voiced similar thoughts. Mostly it's fast foods and some red meats that taste different, not as good. And that's a good thing.

W-What part of the country are you from?

I'd never heard that before but it appears it's true and Jack Daniels was related to Felix Waggoner. Check out this link?

http://www.fohbc.org/PDF_Files/JackDaniels_Cauwels.pdf

J"asper "Jack" Newton Daniel was born

on September 5th, 1846, the last of ten

children born to Calaway and Lucinda

Daniel. Jack’s mother died a few months

after he was born. When his father later

remarried, Jack could not get use to his

new stepmother, and after a lot of thinking

and talking to his siblings, he decided he

would leave home and live with a

neighbor. On his sixth birthday, he said

goodbye to his favorite sister and told her

he wanted to go live with their Uncle Felix.

Jack then moved in with Felix Waggoner

and his family on a very large farm on the

banks of Mulberry Creek in Lincoln

County."

Wow! There may be something to that story after all! Lol thank you for sharing that. I will ask my mom more questions. My Aunt Fran was working on the family tree but when she passed away I am not sure who ended up with all the research. Now I really want to know!

my taste changed too. I used to eat sushi 3 times a week. Can't stand it now. Don't like milk or ice cream either, now. Same for avocados! Strange.

Oh good, I thought I was the only one who had taste changes in some food. Some I loved, when I smell them I want to barf.

Baked sweets taste too sweet for me now. I took a bite of birthday cake frosting at a family party and could barely swallow it.

Same thing with a lemon berry slush from sonic, my boyfriend loves them, I tried a sip and it was way too sweet.

I cannot stomach pizza anymore either. Which is a good thing I guess. Haha

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
