Change in taste

In 1.5 years post op and about halfway to goal.

I've noticed that foods I used to love and were eating recently stopped tasting the same.

Had anyone else noticed a change in their taste? Is this part of the journey?

Tried any of your pre op junk food? I had tortilla chips- they tasted nasty & greasy. Easy to resist!

Yes, my tastes changed dramatically, and this eventually went hand in hand with my lack of interest in food and eating........which means no hunger or cravings

Absolutely! The foods I used to eat that were so high in carbs, YUCK! Chips are too salty and greasy as are many of my other old favorites! Cookies and candy are just too much sweetness for me. And veggies...pre-op, there were very few veggies I would eat. Now I crave veggies all the time! I love raw veggies and use those for when I want a crunchy snack! The foods that I crave now are healthy foods like greek yogurt, veggies, tuna, salmon, chicken, nuts, cheese....I love that my tastes have changed so much!

Ive noticed that junk food doesnt taste the same too especially when i try to eat tacos or cheeseburgers. Potatoes chips taste differently too. I guess it for the best:-)
