OMG yes I got sleeved on 12/8 and even my home sir fresheners that I have ALWAYS used are too much for me. I wonder if this will go away or get worse?

I find them somewhat keener or perhaps pickier? Anything strong bothers me. I was sleeved on 12/7 and the smell of coffee brewing or bacon cooking nauseates me now.

Yes, this happened to me. I've always been sensitive to smells but for a month after being sleeved it was overwhelmingly strong. I made my husband take the trash out almost every day because I could smell it from across the house.

I found this too and three months out it is still the case! In fact, I had a favorite essential oil spray I used to LOVE and use everyday and now I hate it!

I'm over a year out and was standing in the dining room at my parent's last night and said, "I smell marshmallows." My mom looked at me in disbelief and said she opened a cabinet in the kitchen to put something away and there is a giant bag of marshmallows in there. LOL! I've still got it. Mom said I'm a "super smeller".

Unfortunately perfumes, body odor and cigarettes makes me physically ill now. Having a keen sense of smell and working with the public is not a good combination.

I have a theory about starvation levels and the body trying to detect food any way it can, rejecting all but the best. Meh?

Right! If we were back in the days of the caveman and we were starving those that had the best sense of smell to find food would out live the ones that didn't!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
