I don't think my taste in eating has changed because of my age. I think however a couple of things has changed.
I don't like a lot of salt or a lot of sugar as I used to. Because the one that cooks around here said her father helped her to not like salt.
She started putting less and less salt in my food. She said then later in time asked me if I realized that I was eating less salt. She told me
she was taking it out a little at a time by first starting with a salt substitute.
I sensitive to it now. She stills has than I do because she can't tolerate it. As for sweets I mostly like chocolate. But, I can't stand the hard
sweet colored candy like Spree , sweethearts etc.
In a year I have lost about 40 pounds, and in the last month and a half a further 25 pounds. This is intentional. I am eating about 1200 calories a day, no sugar, no salt. Fruit bowel at 8 am, small soup at noon, small meal at 6 pm, and a piece of fruit before I go to bed at 11pm. No bread, no cake, no cookies. I started out at 280 pounds a year ago, I am now at 235 with a target at the end of 2022 of 200 pounds. No alcohol, and no pizza. Jimb.
You sounded like a lightweight to me

You see, I was an extremely overeater. I was eating lots of pasta, bread, out food etc. to mention.
When I moved here, I was in the low 200's which wasn't bad. If you fall on the fall everybody, you'll have a reason why.

My weight went up to 360 lbs.. It was hard to believe that I was heavier than John Candy, Chris Farley and Louie Anderson. There was one guy that beat me which was John Goodman on Roseanne. My roommate said he lost a lot of weight and now looks skinny.
Well out of 8 mos. I'm now 335 lbs.. I'm glad to know that now my weight is not climbing again. I wouldn't get as extreme as your diet.
I'm losing weight by eating normal now instead of overeating. I eat sort of similar but not as much.
I space out carbs, sugars even salt. If I can do it most anyone else could. I wouldn't ever wish that anyone was as heavy as I was.
I hope that everyone could just eat and be healthy.
