Extra sweet taste buds



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I've noticed my taste bubs are very sensitive to sweet flavor. When I drink my shakes or Protein flavor drink example lemonade I find it too sweet so I add more Water. Anyone has the same problem? Don't get me wrong, I'm a water person, but once in a blue I like something sweet.

I really noticed that! Apart from the Protein Powder Soups here on BariatricPal Store, every other Protein powder I find sickly sweet! I have so easily made a switch to a low carb diet - and to compensate, I am loving things like salad greens! Never been partial to that before!!

I struggled to find a tolerable Protein Drink and settled on this as my everyday breakfast:

1 shot of coffee, cooled in fridge overnight

6 ice cubes

1 oz milk

20g protein worth Of least sweet possible vanilla protein powder

Blitz in NutriBullet - yum! The coffee sort of mellows out the sweet in the protein powder - this is my everyday starter meal...

Yes, as you eat less it seems like taste and smell ramp up. I can smell really well now and strong flavors can be too much. The artificial sweeteners are super sweet, so I had to Water down my shakes too.

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
