The smell of cooked food makes me sick.

Hi everyone,

i has my VSG about 4 days ago. My problem is that every time someone cooks in the house it makes me sick.

Dose this go away soon?

Your sense of smell, taste, and appetite will be wonky for weeks or months to come. I had a bypass over 6 months ago, and I am still sensitive to most foods. If you've ever experienced morning sickness during pregnancy and the acute response to certain smells (the smell of steamed rice sent me head-first to the toilet) you'll better understand what I mean.

I don't know if a sleeve procedure is worse or about the same, but since we are all individuals... it probably doesn't matter which procedure you had. Hang in there. Hopefully, things will even out so you are less sensitive to ordinary smells.
