Guest guest Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 I am now just over 4 weeks out. All food tastes crummy to me. Did anyone else experience that? Will it go away? It's a great way to not eat but since I do have to eat some it would be nice if something tasted good at least!! ) Candi --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 Hi Candi; I experienced food not tasting normal for awhile after surgery. I'm about 11 weeks out now and food taste ok, but my taste buds haven't fully returned to before surgery status and I doubt it ever will. I know that's not what you wanted to hear, but I honestly think it has to do with me having a new stomach and not really with my taste buds. Because our stomachs have changed and my attention while eating is now focused elsewhere since the surgery. I'm still trying to find that happy medium with eating. I find it hard to eat and it's more a chore now, but again I can deal with this. I have honestly never been happier in my life and I'm losing a ton of inches and it hasn't even been 3 months yet. I'm down to a 1x top and a size 20 pants. I started at 3x tops and 26 pants. Things will get better, just keep focused on your goal.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 Thanks Beth!! I am trying. I know it's not my taste buds really. I think it is the fear that I might eat too much that as soon as I sit down to eat my stomach clenches and starts screaming " BE CAREFUL " !!! Then everything is hard to get down. I will keep working on it though. Congrats to you on all those inches!!! Candi 09/08/03 LAP RNY 263/221/125?? Southern Illinois Re: Food Tastes Crummy?

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 I was the same way. Everything had a metallic taste. I believe part of the reason is due to the fact that our bodies are in ketosis (ever read about that in Atkin's diet books?) and maybe it's partly due to the aftereffects of anesthesia. It does pass, though, so hang in there. TJ > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
