HELP - everything taste bad



Recommended Posts

OMG! I am so with you! I used to eat cottage cheese by the bucket load. Now it makes me sick. I even hate the smell of bacon. Who hates bacon?! That is just so wrong.

I really like the pre-made (ready to drink) premier Protein. I hate the powder because it gets so thick. It reminds me of the awful greek yogurt everyone raves about and I hate.

i saw a receipe on a website where a lady put soft tofu in a smoothie for her kids. Tofu has no flavor and she said it added Protein to a strawberry smoothie she made. I haven't tried it yet but that may help you. She did recommend the soft tofu (instead of firm) as it blends better.

What kind of Protein are you liking the best post op? I am having trouble with the taste of anything except Vitamin Water zero...

Glad to know that I am not alone!!!! I have spent so much money trying new forms of Protein that people have recommended on this site. It's such a snuggle getting in my daily recommended amount of protein because this stuff is plain NASTY!!!!

I purchased unflavored whey protein from GNC and mix it with a crystal light and Water. Although the whey is a milk based product, the results were surprisingly tasty! I guess just have to get creative and make your own drinks. I will be soooo glad when this phase is over!!! I'm only 2 was post op. Feel amazing; just challenged with getting my daily recommended among of protein in. Hope this post helps!! Let me know what recipes you invent :-). Good luck

      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.
