Post Op Diet

I had surgery September 10, 2009 RNY I just found out about "head hunger" and I went through the "grieving" process as well I had my first post op appt. today and I have lost 22 pounds so far. Is there any suggestions for diet so I can at least feel alittle normal? As far as "Protien shakes" Sorry but they ALL taste TERRIBLE! Been there and tried them all so there has to be a different way out there. I haven't dumped nor do I feel queasy or anything. The only thing I seem to have issues with is Splenda and Aspartame. Anyone else tried Tropical Smoothie? I tried that to day with protein and that was nasty too since I could taste it. What about stuf like egg drop soup, pinto beans from taco bell, any other ideas and can I make my own shakes with skim milk and fuit like strawberries and banannas and pineapple? Also what is the story on Stevia or natural sugar (raw sugar) does it cause dumping? Sorry for so man y questions but I am just hoping to have a normal life again someday!
