Tastes have changed significantly



Recommended Posts

Work meetings all week. Today they had a sundae bar. I showed restraint and stayed away. But I craved ice cream all afternoon. This evening I picked up some Halo ice cream and decided to have a couple

Of spoonfuls. I used to love the stuff pre-surgery. Now it's like NO. Tasted so odd and left a strange after taste. Which is great actually. No more ice cream cravings.

Sleeved 5/5

Down 35 pounds

Good for you! I experienced the same thing with a mayo-based dip.

I had issues with fish and other meats when I was first able to have meats. They taste normal to me now though. I had to keep trying them because of the need for Protein. Thankfully, you don't need Halo Top. Haha!

I kind wish I had an ice cream kick just so I can try Halo Top. LOL No, not really....so far my tastes haven't changed for anything, but I'm still so early in my walk that I don't know yet, as I haven't tried much or any alternatives. Glad your craving went away, maybe another alternative would suffice if that craving comes back. ;)

I've noticed a change in tastes as well. Everything is much sweeter than before. I assume it has something to do with going cold turkey post op with liquid and soft foods diet. I used to love propel but can't touch the stuff now. Fortunately, I haven't had any cravings since surgery, only 5 weeks out so hope that sticks around.

However, dang there are a lot of food commercials!?!

I've been having that issue with everything I eat. I did the 2 week liquids and was so excited to have real food and now everything's ok the first time, but when I have it again I'm like... no thank you!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
