I have found now that I have to slow down when I am eating I actually have the time to see if I like the food. I can taste it and feel it in ways I did not before. I really love good food now which was never really the case. A nice cup of coffee is heaven now and fruit...so very different.

Totally agree food taste much better !

I hardly eat fruit these days. A lot of it is too slimy and it slips past without me being able to chew it properly, a pity because good fresh fruit (when you can get it) is wonderful

A nice cup of coffee is lovely, I say as I drink my 1st cup of the day! However, I tolerate most fruit by drinking a fruit smoothy in the morning for breakfast. Love fresh fruit, and here in Florida, we get it early in the year. My strawberry smoothies are to die for!

my tastes haven't changed but i've noticed i'm more sensitive to smells... I have a hard time with very powerful smells like garlic, onions, etc.. I love eating them but I can get put off now by strong food smells which never happened before surgery.. Right now I've not gotten in any fruit, been sticking with protein and veggies.. I eat only 3 meals a day and can't seem to get my fruit in.. See the dietitican soon so hopefully she will give me some ideas how to get it in..
