I completely understand since I face the same situation. I am constantly going to the market every time my husband has a taste of something. I drive to the grocery store at least twice a day. But sometimes I am not successful. It’s makes me feel like a failure . But the good news I have been more successful than failure. However, he is still not gaining weight . My husband is pure bones and I tried to see him pass his weight because I just cry. All I see is he is disappearing in front of me.

Hi, my husband has the same taste problem. He has chemo for 4.5 mos. now and he doesn’t enjoy food like before. But he tries to eat so that he’d stop losing more weight. I’ve been making smoothies and that seemed to be Ok for him.

My husband is.going through the same thing. Have you found anything that helps put weight on him?
