No desire to eat or drik

I was sleeved on September 19th, 12 days post-op, and just started full liquids yesterday. I have reached my 32 oz fluids goal only once and now my Fluid goal is 40 oz. My first post-op visit was Wednesday and the nutritionist said I must get my fluids or I'll end up in the hospital dehydrated. My problem, I do not want anything. Everything tastes bad/not right. I have no desire to eat or drink. Being from Louisiana I LOVE to cook. I've been watching food Network channel and in my head, I know it all looks great, but I couldn't care less to taste anything. Usually I want to cook something I've seen and put my own twist on it... nope, no desire. Yesterday I had 16 oz of Water and a cup of applesauce. My head knows I have to eat and drink, but my mouth and stomach wants nothing to do with anything. Will my taste get better? Will I want to eat and drink? When? Has anyone else gone through this?

    Ty you leebick. Takes me about 1/2 hour to get the shake down. Hopefully this metallic tastes goes away soon. Going to try some broth today
