Enhanced sense of smell?



Recommended Posts

Hello! I hav my sleeve done on 8/17/20, and since then I have noticed an enhanced sense of smell. I could smell my husbands chicken Cesar salad from across the house. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks! -Ash

Its mind game you just never noticed it before but now due to diet you are sensing every herb and flavor

yes. My sense of taste got a lot stronger as well (I noticed after surgery that sweet things tasted sweeter - and spicy things tasted spicier). I don't notice it anymore. Not sure if it went away or if I just got used to it.

Now that you mention it I think my sense of smell has improved. Not always a good thing:wacko:

Absolutely. I can smell *everything* now. And a lot of smells that used to be good for me stink now, and vice versa.

My favorite smell is still fresh bread. Though I can't eat it, I can enjoy it with my partners when they do. ^^

Cinnamon Toast and Bacon are the two that I love and don't eat.

I had my sleeve done last Monday and have always had a good sense of smell but I feel it is even better! I thought it was just me! I smelt freshly washed clothes from the other end of the house!

Yes. I was the same way. But I am 7 weeks out now and it is better.

      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! 😞
