Anone elses tastebuds acting hinky?
They warn you when you have this surgery that your taste buds will like different foods. I took this with a grain of salt. Please how different could my taste buds be??
HOLY CRAP ….All the protein shakes I had approved PRE surgery now revolt me. I was advised I could eat saltines and even they taste weird!
I have lost my sweet tooth mostly for chocolate flavored sweets. My chocolate puddings.. yuck, my chocolate protein shakes, blech.
I tried vanilla yogurt, Greek has twice the protein. I actually liked the Chobani vanilla yogurt after surgery ( I wouldn’t touch it before) , it was not too sweet. So thinking they would all be the same today I tried Stoneyfield farms Oikos today and was nearly ill.. it was sickly sweet to me!
I then was like, well I can’t eat I might as well try this Gatorade protein drink … Kiwi strawberry recovery drink .. one sip and I knew I would not EVER buy it again.. I couldn’t even swallow it .. it was super sweet….Now I am a woman who normally makes her crystal light too sweet…and I eat popsicles like they are going out of business.
Luckily I still like eggs and ricotta, and ground meat mixed with spaghetti sauce and ricotta. And peanut butter is still tasty…but I need to find some protein liquid sources and SOON!
So tonights dinner.. spicy sausage with a little sauce and ricotta blended up … and I had to add salt… like a ridiculous amount.. my tastebuds no longer want sweet they want SALT. And even then I could only have a few bites when my new tummy won out over my tastebuds. (Tummy isn't ready for all that salt!)
This is gonna be a fun trip back to eating.
I have a vanilla shake to try tomorrow. Everyone cross your fingers!
