I took Effexor for years, so I understand about the getting weird thing! Im actually a little concerned about being able to take my current meds post op...

I'm curious to see if my taste will change that same way! Thanks for sharing all of the changes! :)

Yeah - it was weird! Let me know - Several other people had the same thing happen. It was good except I no longer wanted half of the stuff I bought pre-op.

Earths Best organic baby food is what I gave my kids and I was thinking post op I would try them. I don't they might work for you.

[BeTheBestMe]

They seem to be fine for me. If your doc agrees, you should give them a shot!

Can't swallow pills for two months...we have to crush them. Pills after two months but vitamins crushed forever. SO many different rules, sheesh!

[BeTheBestMe]

Wow, really!? Do you mix them in food or take them with water?

[Journey2betrhealth]

We can't have creamy soups or juice yet. Tomatoes too acidic according to my surgeon. Everything has to be <3g sugar and 3g fat forever. Shoot they even told us not to do baby food...go figure. I am living on cottage cheese, carb control yogurt, eggs, chicken and fish. I miss salads. So glad you finally updated. I missed you!

I am going to avoid the tomato soup for a while; it was a little too harsh. I was told I could have gentle (low starch) cream soups and diluted juice. They gave me diluted v8 in the hospital on day 3. I love cottage cheese. I should probably adhere to the 3g fat/sugar rule. That sounds like a good one. I can't eat eggs though, they won't stay down. Fish and crab meat also wont stay down. Its wierd how my taste changed after surgery.
