What stage of your diet are you on? I had my surgery Thursday, and I can only have clear liquids until Sunday. What are you drinking/eating that tastes bad? If it's the fluid, try different temps. Some people can tolerate hot or room temperature water more than cold water.

Today, I was cleared for full liquids.  Strained cream soups,  yogurt without fruit pieces, pudding,  protein shakes, and all clear liquids I want. The thing is, it all taste bad!! I have this metallic taste in my mouth. No matter how much I bru****s there. Makes me not want to even bother.

Ah, I gotchya. I think I have read in other posts that this happens sometimes. I'm not sure how to get rid of it though, hopefully some vets will be able to help. I hope eating gets easier for you!

Welp, there's your problem. Everything on the full liquids menu is nasty. My list looked about the same: protein shakes, fat free yogurt, fat free cream of wheat, fat free cream of rice, fat free pudding, fat free cream soups (strained). Your sense of taste may also be a little more sensitive for a while. That's normal after surgery.

Google "ketosis".

  If it feels good, do it!  And if it smells good, eat it!

I had this from the high protein diet.  In fact, for 2-3 days I even had this white crap all over my tongue.  It went away, the bad taste went away, and I quit constantly brushing my teeth.  haha  It took about a week.

You're probably in ketosis.

Ok. I will keep at it but to be honest, I just don't want to. Unfortunately,  I know that is not an option. 

Making a conscious decision to become a better me!!!

What is it that you don't want to do?
