What food have you gone off, and what food do you now like/prefer ?

I am curious how the taste buds change post surgery.

At 8 weeks post op, I now see few changes:

Off/Don't eat:

• red meat
• lettuce
• chocolate
• Snicker Pods
• bread
• tomato/V8 juice
• apple juice
• equal
• chilli pepper
• pepper
• tabasco
• any dry type food

On/Prefer:

• chicken, fish (especially Salmon)
• brewed black tea
• cruskits
• cottage cheese
• diet jelly
• Vaalia vanilla and Natural yoghurt
• stevia
• spinach

Still love my coffee, have brewed coffee in the mornings, then Decaf later.

I can tolerate little amount of vanilla ice-cream, as a treat, once a week, instead of 2 bowls 4-5 times a week.

I am still early post op, so my taste may change again....

Would love to hear form others, re change in foods and tastes

Your tastes will change the further you go out from surgery. You will probably notice that you can eat in the future the stuff you can't tolerate now.

I hope that chocolate will stay away .....

Right now, anything too acidic gives me grief.

At this stage, I also went off: rice (never liked it), butter, cakes, biscuits .....
