I use to love to drink milk, it was my favorite. I would drink a gallon of 1% milk every 3 days. After surgery I have not been able to even stomach the sight of milk. I want some so bad but then I just look at it or smell it and I am grossed out. I am 3 months post op..... Will I ever like milk again???

I don't know, but I am going through something similar with coffee... I always loved coffee, especially my first cup in the morning... I had a half cup two weeks after surgery and it just tasted... "flat"... Now, I have one cup of tea in the morning... No more, and no coffee... It doesn't make me sick, I just don't much care for it...weird.

I didn't drink milk for several months, like you. Was able to reintroduce in small dosages about 4 months. Don't try drinking a glass but put a little in something you are drinking. If you get sick to your stomach maybe you are still intolerant.

But, there are some whom never get back to drinking the stuff.

Good luck!

I still have a problem with milk. Like you we are big milk drinkers in our family. For my husband and I, it was our drink of choice. We would go through 5 gallons of milk a week, 1%. After getting sleeved, I couldn't drink milk at all unless it was part of a Protein shake. Then I couldn't drink it at all so I switched soy then almond milk...not the same but at least it was something. I still can't drink it straight but I can have it in tea or coffee or to greek yogurt to thin it out or oatmeal or grits. But once a month I try a glass to see if I can handle it. Its been 9 month still no go but I am not giving up!

I used to have a problem with tuna but at 6 months I had no problem. My nut said that some people become intolerant to food on a temporary basis. That if something doesn't sit well to try again a week or two later.
