I feel like this was normal even before the surgery, but after the surgery, its so extremely difficult to pass like a NYC street vendor who is selling hot pretzels, or sweet nuts... the smells are amazing... but what about the taste? I can't imagine that the taste is as good...
I am a little over two weeks out and I've been eating organic low sodium fat free butter nut squash soups, vegetable soups (with teeny tiny veggies i can chew in my mouth), and some other soups... but I cannot taste them. I chose the low sodium for a reason - Most soups sodium levels are like between 300-800 mg...it's way too much for us who have had the sleeve; so I like to get the low sodium, or no salt added (so I can add my own to my taste)
But still...I am having a very difficult time tasting things. I can smell things and fantasize about eating some tuna or some lovely baked salmon with lemon sauce, but I can't taste it for the life of me. Anyone else having difficulty tasting what they are eating?
I made sure I was eating VERY slowly...It takes me like half an hour to an hour to finish 8fl oz of soup lol
