Is it normal for your tastebuds to change this much???

I don't know if this is just a phase I'm going through or what, but I just have a total aversion to meat anymore. Physically, I tolerate it just fine, but I just have no desire to eat it at all. Pre-surgery I was definitely a meat eater, but now I could go without it and wouldn't miss it at all. I've been forcing myself to eat some meat and I've been eating lots of eggs and cheese for the protein. I'm just wondering if it's normal for your tastebuds to change this much.

Brandi, you are only a couple months out. If you try somehting now and don't like it, give it a coule months and try again. Worked for me. 2 years out and now I can eat anything, even stuff I couldn't bear to smell the first year after surgery.

Strangely, my tastes didn't change at all,, except for one thing, Diet Coke, it WAS my life blood, tried a little sip again last week,, hated it.

Other wise, the foods I liked,, still do,, the stuff I didn't like,, still don't.

my tastes changed a lot and continue to change.  i have hated sweet potatoes my whole life and tried them again recently and loved them.  and cra****ried a diet vanilla coke the other day and wanted to spit it out.  i guess we have really changed our wiring, so it shouldn't come as a surprise, but my tastes would sometimes change over the years even before my surgery.  it has just happened a lot more since my surgery.
