Does Eating/Food ever become enjoyable again?

I'm 7 weeks post op RNY. I've followed the doctors orders to a t. I get my Protein and Water in religiously.

When does food become enjoyable again??

Right now, something can look appealing and I'll have a bite and it will be painful...or l will have a couple bites and feel nauseous. Pretty much, the only thing that doesn't do this is water.

Help?

I'm 1.5 years out and it's still a struggle. Food still makes me nauseous at times. Also, sometimes I may have a certain food on my mind, and can be extremly hungry, but only eat A very small amount before I'm full.

How funny you post this today. I just said to my husband at dinner eating is really no longer enjoyable. It's like Forrest Gump said, you never know what you're gonna get. The end result is a mystery. Some days I can eat fine and the same thing another day has absolutely no appeal.

Only 3 mos post but definitely does not feel enjoyable!

And I thought I was all alone in this. Thanks for your post's :) .

I guess everyone is different. My sister had her gastric bypass surgery around 15 or 16 years ago. She can eat, but still has trouble with certain foods such as ketchup, ice cream, rice, and yogurt. And she said pasta fills her up extremely fast. My mom on the other hand had her surgery like 13 or 14 years ago and pretty much can anything except for rice regular sodas, and ice cream.
