I hear you - Im still pretty early in the game recovery wise and my taste is coming back but I'm impatient! Food is an ordeal sometimes it's just easier to chug an ensure and boost. I had lentil and split pea soup last night and finished a whole bowl (it actually tasted good!) but it had me running to the bathroom all night - I guess there is such a thing as too much of a good thing - I have to remember smaller more frequent amounts - my body isn't used to a lot of foods at this point! I miss food since eating out was something we do for pleasure - ugh!!!

Jayne sadly the lack of taste can be a big turn off - but it should come back!! Hugs!
