I've heard there are foods that VSGers used to like but sometimes their tastes change after surgery and they don't like anymore. Just wondering which ones they are for some people?!

The only taste change for me was that I dont care for sweet things any more. They tend to be TOO sweet now. Other than that, I still enjoy the taste of all the other foods.

I have not had any changes as to what I like. Only the amount that I can eat. Of course I have not had any bread, Pasta, rice or sugar since my surgery so I dont know if I still like those things. (pretty sure I will) I always heard that was more for the Bypass patients.

I still LOVE EVERYTHING about food... There is nothing I don't like now... but since surgery I LOVE Frank's Red Hot sauce. Used to be a bottle of that would last me years.. but went through a bottle in 6 weeks! Now I finally understand their tag line.

There are things that I can't tolerate any longer, but nothing that I don't like because of a change in tastes. If anything I like more things now. Before I never liked spicy foods, now I can't have enough spice!

eggs used to be my favorite thing to eat for Breakfast lunch and dinner and while I was on an all liquid diet right after surgery I couldn't wait to finally eat eggs again. But I think I've eaten 2 eggs in the past 2 months and the thought of them kinda grosses me out. When I ate them they tasted normal and delicious but I don't think I will try them again. At least not for a while

food in general. I get hungry but nothing sounds good. I just do whatever Protein, then I'm full and move on to something else to do besides eat.

Peanut Butter makes me nauseous now and so does the smell of coffee.< /p>

Twix. Never in my life have I not liked Twix but I had some and it was not at all good. My best friend congratulated me on not liking Twix anymore and it is a relief to check another temptation off the list. But still...Twix. I used to love Twix.

Hamburger meat. I used to love a good hamburger, but now even at 4+ months out even a bite or two of a hamburger or anything made with ground hamburger makes me queasy. It's not the loss that I thought it would be though... When you don't like it, it's easy to just not have it!

It's not that I don't like it, I was just very disappointed when I had it for the first time post op- pizza. I was so excited to be able to eat some and so we ordered my fav. When I bit into it it was- just blah. I ate the toppings instead.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
