Hypersensitive to smells



Recommended Posts

Yes definitely hypersensitive. Fried foods, cleaning products, perfume, deodorant too strong.

Ok, you guys are making me feel better. I really feel like I'm losing it. Even the dishwasher tabs leave a smell in our glasses that makes me feel like I'm drinking dishwater.

I was wondering the same thing. It's only been a month for me but food smells gross me out and other smells are so strong. Another thing I'm experiencing is that I'm cold all the time. Is that normal. Especially since I normally was always hot. Strange lol

Honestly, the smell of people's breath really makes me sick, including my own.

I was doing a major house cleaning this weekend and wore a surgical mask so I didn't get sick before surgery. I couldn't stand my own breath coming back in my face.

      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.
