Taste?  No.

Choices?  Yes.

I choose not to eat the same things I did prior to surgery since I know most of them are not good for me.  I am by no means perfect, but I don't have to eat an entire cake to feel satisfied.

My tastes didn't really change post op, I was glad that it didn't, didn't want to wake up not liking chocolate! My desires have changed, I still have a sweet tooth but it doesn't dominate my day like it used to.

Pre-op I was a Peanut M&Ms junkie;  post-op I couldn't care less.  The flavor or smell didn't entice me anymore.  I'll sometimes eat a dark chocolate with filberts, but not like the Bad Old Days.

Immediately after surgery until about a month out, my tastes did change.  I couldn't stand the smell or taste of the shakes I had loved pre-op.  Also, several flavors of crystal light were disgusting and coffee was terrible.  A lot of things had a metallic taste to them.  I suspect this was a reaction to the anesthesia?  

Now, I don't notice any changes and seem to like most things that I did before.
