How many of you had a change in taste after you were sleeved. I have not been sleeved yet, hoping for April of 2013. But I have been trying out different Protein Shakes and mix's. I just had a muscle milk vanilla cream that tastes pretty good. I'd like to start buying little bits here and there.

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks Teri

Your taste buds do change. Things I loved pre-sleeve I hated afterwards. Don't follow me because in the name of being prepared, I spent hundreds of dollars on Proteins for after surgery. Most went in the trash cause they were too thick or sickeningly sweet for me.

Congrats on your upcoming surgery next year. Good for you getting prepared!

My tastes changed too. The Protein Shakes I liked before surgery went in the trash. Just thinking of them make me want to gag. I never thought I would say this but chocolate doesn't interest me any more. And that is huge for me.

9 days out--no serious taste change --yet. when you purchase stuff for sampling, many of the online bariatric sites offer the purchase of single servings so you do not have to spend on full size. GNC will accept returns --even if opened.

I was really surprised after surgery because I thought my tastes would change drastically- but in my experience I have not had issues with this. I'm 6 weeks out and enjoy the same foods I did pre sleeve.

That was a great question Teri because that's me too...now that I've finally decided to be sleeved, I wanna be totally prepared! But I have heard this with many..that ones they liked before and stocked up on got tossed. Hmmm...Maybe we should just buy one of every single flavor and brand out there?! haha

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
