As a previous OH stalker before my RNY, I read about how tastes can change dramatically after surgery!! Well I am now a believer of this as its now happened to me!  For the first time since surgey I went to Arby's with my daughter. (I know, I know!) I ordered a junior roast beef and just picked off the meat and threw away the bun. In the past, Arbys was my absolute favorite! WOW!! Is all I can say!! That meat was SOOOO SALTY!!! And it actually tasted like cardboard to me! How in the heck did I eat that before??? I not just a junior either! I used to order the Medium sandwiches!! I honestly didn't even finish the meat and was disgusted with it!! Hmmm, who'd a thunk???!!!
Now this morning, my second experience.. Normally I now live on greek yogurt. I grabbed a Dannon Light & Fit out of the fridge for my breakfast at work and added a scoop of protein powder (unflavored) like I normally do. HOLY SWEET BATMAN!!! lol  I couldn't even finish the container of it as it was disgustingly sweet!! Back to my greek yogurt I go!!! 
What taste changes have you all experienced?
Have a great day!!!

Greek yogurt is good and if you like it you may want to try the Kroger Carbmaster Yogurt too.
I totally feel the taste buds changing thing too.

I had the same reaction to the Arbys roast beef sandwich too. it was totally nasty.
I use to  eat the super big roast beef sandwich, and sometimes I was a real piggy and would try to stuff two of those mothers down.

Now the taste just turns my stomach.

Hope your doing good.

When you coming back to cyber cafe.
How was Florida. Did you have a good trip.

Wow Mary!!! You look fabulous!!! At least 20 years younger too!!!!   Congrats to you!!
Florida was wonderful. I'm ready for another vacation.  I'm trying to get back on here and
keep in touch. I'm just so busy with work and now baseball is in full swing with my son so that
keeps us going all the time! I'm trying to dedicate a few minutes on here a few times a week.

Keep up the great work!!

I don't think I've experienced anything dramatic like you have but I do notice some changes.  Certain Crystal Light type products are far too sweet for me and I still have to water down my juices as they are too sweet as well. 

I've also struggled with supplements.  I'm on my second multi vit and second or third B12 as the taste of them usually makes me want to

With me it was textures.  I can't stand scrambled eggs anymore or hard boiled eggs. Taste wise I have been craving tuna (which I have hated for years ) and I now like avocado.  Who would have thought stomach surgery changes taste buds. lol
