OMG YESSSSS! My hand is up and waving in the air like "pick me, pick me"! HAHA

Sugar or ANYTHING sweet totally grosses me out! I guess that is a good thing but getting used to it did take a bit to get used to. And now trying to figure out what I like now and don't like took a lot of trial and error. A lot of people say don't you get tired of eating the same things. And in fact NO! When it tastes good and makes you feel good it doesn't get old. I crave it.

(Surgery Nov 5) I skipped my last 3 periods, went to gyno, no problems other than cysts. I'm 47 so thought maybe things were shutting down. I came home the next day after surgery and kablooey. I told my dietitian at my after appt and she said it happens to loads of women and often times while they are still in the hospital, regardless of where there were in their cycle. I am interested to see how my cycle goes after this.

Yeah, here is my favorite:

It is crap and was successfully sued for false claims of "medical grade protein" and the claimed 30 grams of Protein. It is actually been proven in court that it is only 11 grams.

I have been lucky. I was sleeved on the 8th. I am lucky and so far like or can tolerate everything i am drinking. However as wierd as it sounds the only Protein Shake that taste wierd to me.. is the chocolate one LOL.. Of all of the flavors i am drinking the chocolate is the worst, Cookies and cream is second worst. I am hoping i did not lose my love for chocolate LOL.

I had surgery 10/22. I used to drink the Vitamin Water zero, but now find them too sweet. Unsweetened applesauce is my sweetness limit so far.

I just started the pureed diet this afternoon! Had 1/4 cup cottage cheese. My plan includes only stage one baby food. I bought one of each meat to have in the pantry if needed, hopefully they don't taste like butt.

💩-amentary here. Tried to cutting back to 1 Miralax daily, if your team says 2, do 2. This Am I awoke to flatus, of such a degree Tomkitten said" What was THAT sound?" Silly rabbitt🐰you should know by now So I marched into the Chamber of the Porcelain throne there to await occurrences. Such occurrences were not forthcoming, oh I tried, I said "Rectal muscles- Wakey Wakey!" They yawned out 1 puff of foetus and there I set and set. Oh I could feel the stool sitting right inside the opening. If it had a face , it would haven been smirking. No fleet enema , I was sent a mental message - Colin responded with Message unaccepted- please rephrase and resend! So i, and I shudder to relate this, greased the opening with Vaseline and then summoned all abdominal muscles not busy doing something else, 1-2-3- PUSH PUSH PUSH, And Finally it popped and plopped, a little more vigorous shoving and relief was obtained . But back to the 2 times daily, M.O.M. evening of second day, I might as well resign myself to the fact I shall not have spontaeous 💩for a long time. And I am a 10 week old RnY with structure issues, and a puny liquid diet. By far NOT average, average is as close to inferior as it is to superior,and I fancy myself as superior, worthy of glory , praise and wonderment. Too many years of second string, second-rate, some man's slave/flunky/wife. Now Frustr8 shines clearly, brightly and with her own Star Power!🌟Twinkle Twinkle Frustr8's star, can you see me now shining far?

And you know eating isn’t satisfying anymore. It’s so weird. But it’s a good change not to use food as an emotional crutch anymore. I made this great dinner tonight skinless chicken breast with a homemade shake and bake and steamed green bean and mashed potatoes and a chicken gravy. So good right and then 3-4 bites and I was done. Tasted good the first bite then ehh. Has anyone experienced this too?

I went in for my 1 month post op rny follow up today. I told my surgeon I was grossed out by crystal lite now, salt and popsicles & he said “that’s great actually because we’re seeing now that the surgical patients with these taste buds changes post op are actually doing better post op & are keeping weight off.” So it’s a good thing!😃 I was so happy!!
Just thought Ide share what he said at today’s appt, however, that’s not to say those who do not have taste changes cannot lose & keep weight off too. We all can if we keep to our program. Hugs!
