i need some support. eight days post op. having mental cravings.

Ok, so, i finally had the surgery. I am feeling really well at eight days post op. My problem is this. I knew that I was an emotional eater. I was aware before surgery that this may be an issue for me. For the first five to six days I was fine having broth, jello, those liquid things (I am on a full liquid diet for three weeks). I have been having the worst cravings for regular food the last two days.I have been drinking my water and walking. Last night I had something that was soooo good that would probably be considered soft diet food. I had lost 21 pounds up until yesterday! After eating the soft food yesterday I gained 5 pounds in one day. Is that possible? I need some support from fellow post ops.
