Flavors of foods are not as intense for me now. I can taste but not as strongly. I eat because I know I have to but it's not as enjoyable as before. Alot of foods are just not worth the effort. I stay away from bread products because they just get stuck in my mouth. Tangy foods (pickles etc.) are extremely tangy and tart and spicy foods are extremely spicy. It takes me longer to eat. I still drink Carnation Instant Breakfast every morning to help get the nutrients I need. I have gained back some weight - I did not have any type of feeding tube and only lost 9 pounds through my treatment period. To sum it all up, my eating habits have changed.
