I am 6 weeks post-op and have noticed that meat doesn't taste good anymore. I have tried chicken several ways (kung pao, teriyaki, grilled) and fish (even with lemon and tartar sauce) and they don't taste right. I don't even want to eat them but feel I need to in order to get enough Protein in for the day. I know there are other sources of protein. Other things still taste the same to me (yogurt, eggs, cheese, iced tea).

What the heck is going on?

For me pork tastes disgusting. But, my surgeon did prewarn me that the tastebuds change after surgery.

I hope I hate chocolate after surgery. Lol

I have had a couple of my hubby's french fries and they still taste delicious. Of course. <_<

I had one of the P3 packs with cubed lunch meat, cheese and nuts. I could eat the meat with the cheese and it was good. I will probably make my own from now on because I prefer oven baked turkey vs. smoked turkey.

On a side note, do any of you feel sick when you think about certain foods? Just thinking about meat makes me queasy. I had to really psych myself up before eating the P3 pack. We are going to a party tomorrow night with a nacho bar. I'm dreading it. :65_mask:

I needed it too but the queasiness I have just thinking about it is a head trip.

Just found my taste for tuna fish has changed :( and I use to love tuna fish.

Isn't it horrible?! I loved halibut with lemon and tartar sauce and can't stomach it.

Yes!!! My nut told me not to give it. It can take a few times to like it again, but it was gagging I don't want to try anytime soon. I'm hoping some seafood still tastes good!!!

It is always crazy to me when I read that taste buds have changed, mine are the same. Only more extremely, things I didn't like I hate. Things I like, I love, things I loved, I really really love. I taste food a lot more now and it is delicious.

Everything was delicious early on after weeks of liquids.

It is strange how we are all so different. We are going to use our smoker this weekend and I hope that some of it will taste good.

      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.
