Foods you just can't stand anymore?

[Wes_1984]

I used to kill for a platter of cured meats and funky cheeses. Now? Nope. And those frosted sugar cookies? Forget about it. And I can't even look at a burger. I still like my grandma's strawberry shortcake, but a tiny piece once in a blue moon is plenty. What foods have you all gone off of?

Oh man, where do I even begin? I was all about the sugary cocktails, breakfast mimosas, and ALL the pizza. And candy? Don't even get me started. I kicked refined carbs and sugars to the curb and said goodbye to 140+ pounds. Now I can indulge every so often. But the booze? Still not there.

Anything that's been deep fried. Gives me the worst stomach cramps ever.

 

[Thin-Possible]

Yeah, fried stuff just tastes nasty now. And I'm totally off milk chocolate.

I don't even enjoy food anymore. And honestly, it's made shedding over 100 lbs a breeze! I don't miss it one bit. Grocery shopping is simple: plain yogurt and tomato soup. Done.

Not exactly a food, but beer. I used to love a cold one. Now I can barely choke down half a glass before I'm stuffed, bloated, and generally feel awful. How does that even happen?

High-oxalate stuff wrecked me more than I expected. Found out the hard way that raw kale and nuts were making my joints angry, not the protein I thought was the problem. Cooking greens helped a bunch, and a decent kidney support supplement made a real difference in how I felt.

Right now it's easier to list what I CAN eat! Most bread is out, but I can do garlic knots. Fried stuff is a no-go, but fries are still my weakness. Don't crave sweets, but flavored coffee creamer? Still a problem. Can't do most meat, but sausage patties are my jam.

Mexican food... I used to go wild for chips and queso, tacos, guac, burritos, the whole shebang. Now I can't even look at it. It's so depressing!

 

[Wes_1984]

The weird thing is, I still like all food and drinks. Just... less of it. And I've lost 75 pounds. I did gain some back when I stopped the shots for a while, though.

Ice cream. Any kind, but especially vanilla bean. My system *hates* milk these days.

 

[PulseRoad]

Fish and shrimp. Can't do it anymore.

 

[Thin-Possible]

Anything deep fried, like mozzarella sticks.

 

[Patti_Real]

Everything I used to love is just too dry. Bread, crackers, popcorn... it's awful. But also, it's fine. I started out losing nearly 100 pounds just recovering from some binge eating issues. Then I got on the medication. So I was already pretty used to not eating those things.

 

[Pulse_Lady]

Everything tastes overly salty now.

 

[RunBeer282]

I can't eat macaroni and cheese anymore. Boxed or homemade. It's just... wrong.

 

[Desert-Diva]

Sour cream, yogurt, any cheese flavored chips, and cream cheese are totally off limits now, and I used to live on them! Also, eggs taste stale and just plain gross.

 

[Wes_1984]

It's so weird how our tastes change, isn't it? Like, I NEVER used to eat Greek yogurt. Now I have a little bit every day. Maybe your body just figures out what it actually needs?

 

[GastricEmptyOut]

Everything tastes overly salty now.

Interesting. I've noticed the opposite. Things I used to think were perfectly seasoned now taste bland. It's like my tastebuds are recalibrating.

 

[Thin-Possible]

I'm just starting out, but I'm getting SO many cravings. Like, I want a burger and pizza more than I ever have before in my life. Is that normal? I thought the med was supposed to stop cravings!
