Tastebuds change



Recommended Posts

Strong flavored foods are making me super nauseous, it’s annoying because I’ve been craving some sweet flavors.
sugar free things are not helping at all.
Are fresh fruits safe to suck on? if so which ones?
I tried a slice of orange and it was the best thing ever but i’m scared of dumping.

My nutritionist told me that most people don't dump eating fresh fruit because of the Fiber it has. She also suggested eating fruit and Protein together, like apple and Peanut Butter or an orange and some string cheese.

true dumping is a lot more common in bypass patients than in sleeve patients, and it's usually caused by eating too much sugar. I've heard of some situations where RNY'ers will dump on fruit, but it's usually things like cake and Cookies.

Makes sense, I actually can’t stand Desserts now so i think i’m safe. I’m really into the fruity flavors I was just scared they would mess my stomach up. I’m not good with intake so I stop after an ounce just to be safe

Be especially careful when combining with alcohol.

My sense of smell and taste has changed dramatically. Before my surgery I couldn't stand the smell or taste of eggs in any form. Now I can't keep enough eggs in the house. I love them scrambled.

I had a change of taste preference for a while as well. I couldn't tolerate even the thought about eating something like tofu, so yoghurt or soy milk after MGB. After about 10 months out though this changed back to how it was before surgery.

My smells changed too, so it’s been really hard to eat anything. Now with this virus going around does anyone think canned fruit are ok ? or are they a no no?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
