I was a bit of a carb junkie pre-op . . . not sweets so much, but savory carbs like potato chips, potatoes, etc. I have tried a few bites of various things since surgery - tried potato salad a week ago, tried mashed potatoes the other night, and tried mac & cheese tonight (mind you just a small bite each time). None have tasted good to me. It's the strangest thing! I find myself craving salad, veggies (my mouth was watering earlier thinking about pico de gallo of all things!), and protein. I really hope this continues!!

Oh god, I totally craved salad when I was early post-op, I was dying to have it!! And tomatoes as well. I was cleared for both at four weeks and have been eating a lot of them ever since! I do put chicken and hard-cooked eggs and cheese and etc. on the salads to add protein, but I love 'em!
