I used to hate bananas.
Hate doesn't really accurately describe it. I have actually dry heaved and vommitted attempting to eat a banana.
I loved foods that were super sweet. My true love was chocolate, and not just waxy gross american chocolate but truffles and delicious rich chocolate.
That was almost 2 years ago and 180 pounds ago. I rarely eat chocolate. I eat bananas at least 3 days a week, sometimes more.
I decided soon after surgery, that I was going to learn to like healthy foods. Slowly food by food, I trained myself to like healthy foods. I went 15 months with no carbs, fruit or sugar. During that time, my idea of sweet changed. A half a banana is a nice treat. It is sweet enough. Other things like candy and chocolate are too sweet or rich. I find it interesting that my likes and dislikes have completely changed.
