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

      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.
