It's 23 days since my sleeve surgery. NOTHING tastes good. I have a horrible taste in my mouth. I have brushed my teeth and gargled mouthwash about 6 times per day-every day. Flossed....brushed my tongue, used my waterpic. I've gargled with salt Water. My stomach....doesn't feel good. Sometimes a get hungry, eat, and then tummy feels uncomfortable. At first I thought it was from overeating but now it just takes one or two small bites. Will this go away after more time passes? I've lost only 11 pounds since surgery

Yes, your taste will come back. I had almost zero taste until about 6-9 months out (I don't remember exactly when it came back).

The good thing about having no taste is it helps with making better food choices. When all food tastes essentially the same, the allure of richer, fattier, or sweeter foods just isn't there. Use it to your advantage and fill your body with good, lean Protein. The weight WILL come off, I promise!
