Tastebuds change



Recommended Posts

Strong flavored foods are making me super nauseous, it’s annoying because I’ve been craving some sweet flavors.
sugar free things are not helping at all.
Are fresh fruits safe to suck on? if so which ones?
I tried a slice of orange and it was the best thing ever but i’m scared of dumping.

My nutritionist told me that most people don't dump eating fresh fruit because of the Fiber it has. She also suggested eating fruit and Protein together, like apple and Peanut Butter or an orange and some string cheese.

true dumping is a lot more common in bypass patients than in sleeve patients, and it's usually caused by eating too much sugar. I've heard of some situations where RNY'ers will dump on fruit, but it's usually things like cake and Cookies.

Makes sense, I actually can’t stand Desserts now so i think i’m safe. I’m really into the fruity flavors I was just scared they would mess my stomach up. I’m not good with intake so I stop after an ounce just to be safe

Be especially careful when combining with alcohol.

My sense of smell and taste has changed dramatically. Before my surgery I couldn't stand the smell or taste of eggs in any form. Now I can't keep enough eggs in the house. I love them scrambled.

I had a change of taste preference for a while as well. I couldn't tolerate even the thought about eating something like tofu, so yoghurt or soy milk after MGB. After about 10 months out though this changed back to how it was before surgery.

My smells changed too, so it’s been really hard to eat anything. Now with this virus going around does anyone think canned fruit are ok ? or are they a no no?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
