Food cravings after bypass/banding

[Janeywanttoloosealot]

Okay i really thought after having my bypass that i would crave sweet things as a self confessed choc a holic amongst other things. I have never once craved anything sweet since my op the 8th March. But i do crave potatoes no matter how they come boiled, mashed, roast, new cannot get enough of them. Does anybody else have any cravings they did not exspect since their op?

Janey at least you are craving something you are allowed to eat. The surgeon must have had a chat to your brain and stomach during surgery. lol.

Hiya, its normal food, unfortunately i cannot eat chicken or meat unless i liquidise it in gravy, but i just love potatoes in whatever form with gravy.

I love mashed potato so I should be ok when I have mine done.

And sometimes would love a subway sandwich with sweet onion Teriachi Chicken all the salad and Chipolte sauce on the top Mmmm. Oh well will have corned beef mash if not.
