Taste and smell

It's been 1 week since I lost my taste and smell.
How long did it take for others to regain theirs? Also did you do anything to help regain it? Eg smell training?
I just really miss tasting food already

My sense of smell came back gradually after a couple of weeks, and now after 6 weeks is pretty much back to normal. Taste took longer and still isn’t 100% back to normal.

I took to spraying air freshener/perfume randomly to see if I could get a whiff of anything. It took about a week for smell to start coming back, another few days for taste although even now 4 months down the line there are certain things I don't like the taste of anymore and a lot of things taste different.
