Hi all! Although pain been fine now home just feel knackered but guessing that's the anaesthetic wearing off! Now feel like been run over by a bus or spent too long in the gym! Just wondering when fluids will taste nice? At the moment smells of food and taste of drinks are just disgusting!

Your tastes will change quite a bit. Post-op is all about trial and error until you find your groove. Take care of yourself and rest plenty xx

I know what you mean, I experimented until I found a drink I liked - pre op I was a big tea and bottled water drinker, post op I couldnt stand either, after trying so many different squashes, flavoured teas, juices, I finially settled on fresh apple juice that I diluted 50/50 with water then added ice, I am so glad to say within a few months I was back to loving my cuppas

I normally hate cup-a-soup but was given a tomato one by the hospital I had a band. O
Now for some strange reason I like them. Also activia 0% vanilla yogurt blended with a probiotic activia 0% drink is lovely and soothing. Hope this helps x
