Why do I crave food but nothing tastes good or it hurts to eat it?

I am 2 & 1/2 weeks post-op RNY. I am still on the puree stage of the diet. Why do I still crave things but when I taste it doesn't taste good to me? It's a little frustrating! Honestly, nothing sounds good to me right now. Not only that sometimes when I eat something or even drink anything sometimes it hurts. It feels like I have something stuck in my rib cage. Is this all normal? Is this something that will happen only in the beginning?
