LOL I thought it was just me and my wonder nose as my hubby calls it..LOL I can smell things a mile away I think. I drink proti 15 ....I buy it from my Dr's office, but I think you can get it online. I like the grape and peach mango the best.

I agree - My sense of smell is much stronger. A friend suggested it was because I had gotten rid of all the toxins in my body and everything is running better now. Well I can't stand the smell of subway or other fast food so that is good. I have stuck with types with more flavor and the smell doesn't seem too bad. I like chocolate and I add mint extract to it or Strawberry. Those seem to cover the protein smell somewhat. I am also now drinking the IDS New Whey- It comes in a test tube and is in a few fruit flavors. I add it to water as it is pretty strong tasting and very sweet. It comes in a 3 ounce tube and either 28 or 42 grams of protein. It is getting me out of the milk shake blahs. It is good to talk to someone in the same boat- Jennifer

I'm new at this, so bear with me if I goof up. I also had my surgery on 2/26 and I was thinking that they messed up. I haven't felt full yet. I've only been eating the recommended amounts though and I've lost 30 lbs. This week has been especially tough. I thought that most issues were successfully dealt with during 6 mos. required counseling. NOT SO!!!! Today when my kids visited and brought pizza, I actually chewed up a little ( and spit it out ). I'm really missing texture and something that isn't SWEET. Most of the things that are on my list are sweet and that never was a favorite of mine. It's to the point that I gag when I try to drink them. Anybody have some support or ideas about this? Thanks in advance.

Your welcome Lee Ann, were all here to help each other. I don't know what I would do without this site. Congrats on your weight lose and just keep working your tool!

Thanks for your reply, I have decided to go back to just fluids for a couple days and see what happens. best wishes Lee-Anne
