Everything is Disgusting 😕



Recommended Posts

I had my RNY on 1/7 and everything still tastes bad. I don’t know if this is normal. Some days I really have to FORCE myself to eat anything. liquid smells (dairy especially) and food scents all upset my stomach and I’m afraid that I’ll never want to eat again. Lost 40 lbs so far but idk if that’s okay with my eating habits. Anyone ever experience this?

I still have it, find some foods that I used to love cooking repulsive. Maybe not as bad as right after surgery, but it still lurks.

Sure, food just isn't the same after surgery as it was before surgery and some foods that we used to like we now can't tolerate. It's normal. I'm not liking food very much and even though I'm 7 weeks post-op and can have food I'm still sticking more to liquids because they're more tolerable for me and food just sounds gross.

I did not have the RNY, but i find that i cannot tolerate the food i used to love. I have almost reverted to tuna and salmon a lot... today i am going to make meatballs since i cannot eat more than 12 ounces of tuna a week. I cannot do chicken at all, nor pork.. Steak only and only if very thin sliced. It is a constant learning process.

Made myself some cheesy potato Soup, made as low fat as possible, skim milk the whole process. 1/3 cup, will Precious Pouch stay happy and keep it down? I sure hope so, it's all pureed, no lumps, no bumps. Gonna wait 40 minutes to drink anything, we shall see how things go but I'm not nauseous, that is an improvement right there!😝🍜

for most of us, hunger and appetite does eventually come back - and then things get a lot more challenging. Take full advantage of this period when you're indifferent to or hate food - it'll NEVER be easier to lose weight than it is right now!

      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.
