How funny!! After my surgery, I was craving cereal too.. I have small kids and you i can't go without cereal in the house.. And yes it was hard and yes I even cried bec all i would think was omg I will never be able to eat again.. But t gets better, trust me.. I craved everything even the things i didn't like before surgery and now it sooo much easier bec I'm able to eat and enjoy not the food but the flavor if u know what i mean lol.. But hang in there it will get better .. And plus when u start seeing the results oh that will be the best feeling ever!! Congrats!
