3-month post-op food cravings bread and cookoes

For the first since since surgery (post-op 3 months) cookies ad bread were placed in front of me at a lunch and I craved them. I resisted them and ate an Atkins protein bar instead. But my brain kept telling me, "your stomach can handle bread and cookies." What is your experience post ? Do you ever eat bread or cookies? My surgeon's office recommends avoiding bread if possible because of the carbs. I agree, I am afraid that if I open the door to eating bread again, I will always eat it.

I only a few days out from surgery (2/28/13) but I can hardly believe how much my tastes have changed. Nothing but the no sugar added Popsicles taste ok. Will this change?

I was actually the same way. I drank only Water and sucked on sf Popsicles. It will get better. Took me almost a month to finally get that nasty taste to go away. Then it was relearning what I did and didn't like cause that all changed. Like for example...my chocolate shakes, I loved them before surgery and now if I smell chocolate milk or a chocolate shake I'm running away.

I can eat the very thin 7 grain bread toasted with low fat cheese (cheese toast). I'm 3 months out. Haven't eaten it in a while but didn't bother me.
