Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Can someone explain to me..
Why one day i drink something, even something like plain spring water and it is fine to me, on the pouch and tasting , then the next I can not stand it!!!!Fluids have been an ongoing issue with me, not getting them or keeping them down, just tolerating the taste.I spoke to my dr and they sd just keep pushing what you can tolerate, but this is getting really depressing...

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Im not sure but my pouch is finekey ( is that even a word,  ). One day something goes down real good and then the next, total opposite. Its just trial and erroe. In the begining especially. Now that Im further out things are better.

I have had the same problems with things you just have to remember youre still healing and the body is going through rapid changes so the pouch feels good some days and not so good others. Just hang in there it will get better!

awww yep i had the same issue. not with fluids though. but i went thru it in the soft moist phase. and it sucked. it was VERY frustrating. also i had a wierd taste going on in my mouth for MONTHS but i got past it. you will to. just keep thinking: there are brighter days ahead. this is just a rough patch. hang in there.

Oh yes its truly amazing what we dont like the taste of now after surgery. It deftinely changes our tastbuds. I was the same way. Got on here and read that it wasnt just me. Very strange.

I noticed at first that my sense of taste was heightened - I could differenatiate the separate ingredients in a food, like I could taste the salt, pepper, butter and potatoes in instant mashed potatoes. It was like each taste bud was reporting to my brain what it could taste, and I didn't get the blended taste of the food. Anything "fake" tasted horrible, only real foods tasted good. I'm now a month out and it's not as strong but still don't like anything fake: like fat free cream cheese - it doens't taste or feel like cream cheese. YUCK! I think this is why a lot of people mentioned that they can't do leftovers. I take one whiff and they go straigth into the trash. (Unless DH is there to snatch them back and say he'll eat them, LOL) I'm hooked on water and freshly brewed tea. I don't much like coffee anymore, and certainly not the decaf. I don't like any of the crystal light or other products you can use to flavor water. I would suggest trying a wedge of real lemon to flavor your water and see if that works. |
