Food & changing tastes!!!

[momsgettinfit]

I had my first cheat meal last night and we had chinese I did pretty good. But I did have one cheese wonton only b/c they were my most favorite,but my tastes must be changing b/c I didn't care for it much. Has that ever happen to any of you with a food you use to love?

Oh definitely!! Plus I like foods now that I didn't used to....I now like cottage cheese, coffee, etc....As I'm eating healthier & leaning out - I find I don't like a lot of "out" or unhealthy foods -- especially restaurant foods ---> they taste like grease to me....

Yes, I am much more sensitive to sodium levels in food now. I usually get sick when I eat greasy food now too. I also find that I know my body better and know the way that it reacts to sugar, carbs, etc. now. I use to never notice. And like Jenn I now like things that I never use to eat like eggs, coffee, tuna, veggies, etc.

Same here, I ate steam veggies,egg drop soup, 1 cheese wonton, and 1 C noodles. I felt so heavy and icky. Plus I got a headache. I didn't like the feeling at all. I drank water with the meal no soda or anything but I didn't really feel well the whole evening afterward.

I definitely noticed when cheating after my last comp that most things didn't taste as good as I wanted them too, or as good as I remembered. The Chinese was ok. Cheesecake, so-so. Mexican though, was everything I wanted it to be, and then some! It was the first cheat meal I had after last comp, and will be the first after this next comp also. And the explanation I came up for this was that it is mostly all carbs, and my comp diet was sorely lacking in carbs.

I think mine was maybe to much msg or something in the food. I eat carbs every day maybe not with every single meal but I do eat at least 2 to 3 servings a day plus fruit so don't think it's b/c of the noodles but then again who knows.

I'm in the same boat, the foods taste bland, but most of all my reactions to sugar,alcohol and dairy have intensified after eating clean for soo long. I'm bloated,tired and get headaches now after eating simple carbs,dairy,alcohol.

I got a headache as well. Maybe that's one of the reason's I'm feeling to bitchy today. That or hormones. LOL
