All food tastes bad now.



Recommended Posts

I am 24 days out and I don't like the taste of anything, even things I've always loved. I don't want to eat or drink anything. I am having a bit of a problem with I think, vertigo, also making me feel motion sick, so I don't know if this is a contributing factor. Will I get over this loss of taste feeling.

You will definitely get past this. Nothing sounded or tasted good to me for a few months and watching other people eat made me feel queasy. Eventually, all that good stuff will taste great again and you will wish you could go back to now. Take advantage of this blessing in disguise while it lasts!

I find the things I loved, I can't Stand the smell of. I'm using this time to try new flavors, spices and things out of my norm. ;)

You will get past this...but think of it as an opportunity to change your relationship with food. Hang in there!

It gets better. Focus on finding things you can tolerate. Smells still sometimes get me but it does get better.

Oh, yeah. This thing will pass. And then the next "thing" will happen. And after that, the next one.

I read this morning on a health blog that "the two magic ingredients" necessary to change your life for the better are: Patience and consistency.

I liked that.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
