Beguiledb4 I dont know why I am feeling so angry with food. I am a chief! I cook thats all I know is food but I cant even taste my food anymore because it ALL taste strange! How am I going to adjust?

Oh, I see, I think that might frustrate me toward feeling angry the same. You gotta adjust, the best thing to do is know that it is you to decide what that means, trying to find what this and that is will also be your task I guess along with the weight loss and personal cooking you do for you. You should designate a taste tester friedndly relationship with some one in your kitchen too.

Thank you. I was sooooo frustrated : ( Thank you

no problem, maybe you'll add something cool to recipes here some time, hope I see that if you do, stay cool, you can do it.

I know what you mean about hating food. I have my moments, most of them i really dislike food too...the pleasure it used to provide for me is gone. I had surgery oct. 17th, so not much different than you. I hear for some people the tastebuds do change, and even anesthesia, i think, can do that. But i do also think it can go away. For me, i think the biggest thing is the headtrip. I was an unconscious eater, food provided me so much comfort and was so delicious. Now, even if something is delicious, i've swallowed a few bites and don't feel well before i can really enjoy it....it's a waste to spend money on food, i still hope for variety yet one meal can last me days....i think it's just an adjustment period, right now, we can't eat much, and things have changed, and our "friend" is gone...it will take time for our heads to wrap around this, and it is a bit depressing in a way. Hang in there, and understand that your health and longevity are what's important here, you will have that long after your depression/disappointment ends...know what i mean?
