dont enjoy proteins... carbs dont digest well and im a sweet tooth

Suck it up. I don't love veggies, but I eat them because they are part of a healthy diet.

Also... I second the all pancake diet as clearly it's the only thing you want to eat (which, by the way, are mostly carbs, so I'm confused).

We all have different palates, sure. At some point, however, you need to decide whether you'd like to meet your nutritional needs or just eat pancakes. There's plenty of foods on my "NOPE!" list, but I still manage to make my macros most days.

Hi everyone
I discovered that I dont enjoy eating proteins (u dont do me a favor with eggs and bacon or salmon or chicken or meat) and carbs seem to give me a bad digestion reaction (if u get the picture) however not sure if its from the pasta or the sauce... and I get extremely happy and satisfied with sugar (pancakes, icecream) which I guess makes me a sweet-tooth. Salads and fruit I can have and love but doesn't keep me going for very long...
Does anybody else recognize him or herself in this? I find it hard to create a balanced and satisfying diet like this...

It is hard to understand your issues. If you have digestive issues maybe see a doctor and dietician.
Try beans and lentils. Can you eat nuts? What about cheese, yogurt or milk? Do you eat rice, potatoes, bread, oatmeal and have digestive issues?

I'm also a total sweet tooth and I kind of know what you mean. Like the others have said, you can get carbs from so many foods that are not necessarily bread, but when it comes to protein from meats, if you don't like them, I suggest doubling up on the protein powder in your breakfast shake. I like to put spinach (can't taste it at all) a little banana, frozen berries, apple juice or a light yogurt mixed in ( not all together, just 1 or 2 to make it sweet) along with protein powder, flax seeds or chia, liquid vitamins etc,, and water in my shake in the morning. That way I can enjoy a sweet shake while also getting some veggies, vitamins, and proteins. Some other sweet snacks I can think of are apple slices with almond butter, so delicious yogurt with berries ontop, valhrona (sp?) Cocoa powder shakes (cocoa, chocolate protein powder, spoon of peanut butter, 1/4 banana, spinach, almond milk ) yummy... There are many creative ways to make a sweet shake and get the nutrients you need. Hope this is helpful?

If you don't like proteins and can't "handle" carbohydrates it sounds like you might want to switch to an all lard diet. Sure it might be difficult to get past the taste and texture, but you would get to avoid the proteins and carbohydrates you are trying to avoid.

Additionally, since fats are 9 calories per gram compared to the 4 calories per gram for proteins and carbohydrates you will not have to eat as much per day!..

In all seriousness though, if you don't have an underlying medical condition then you just need to find a way of introducing new foods into your diet. Each week make it a point of removing 2 foods that are not on the "good list" and replace them with foods that are on the list. (Not that there is an actual list, but there are foods that are high in nutritional content and there are foods that aren't. Pancakes would definitely not fall in the high in nutritional content category.) With time you will learn to adapt to these new foods and find ways of making them more palatable to your own tastes and preferences.

Additionally, sometimes you just need to suck it up and eat the foods you currently don't like. Eggs as an example can be made a hundred different ways and added to many things with little notice. Add two eggs to the rice you are cooking, or put a bunch of veggies in them as you scramble them to cover up the taste with new flavors. Tabasco is also a great addition to scrambled eggs. It just sounds to me like you just need to become more creative and inventive in the kitchen.
