Someone Chime In / Respond Please
I was sleeved three wks ago. I'm in my early 30's. I started with 255 and today I'm 228. I too get a naseous feeling and headache with sweet things, even my vitamin chewables. I switched to lactaid n it's good. I also go with gluten free things Now. A lot of people mentioned what u r saying regarding sweet things n taste buds changing. It supposedly passes eventually.
