No problem , don't even miss it.I think it has something to do with getting the white sugar and white flour out of our bodies. As well as the vitamins and proteins ,going into our bodies that stops the cravings.

I LOVED sweets prior to surgery and now have no problems with it. Any significant amount of sugar (more than 12g) makes me feel nauseous and tired. I HATE being nauseous and the sweets taste too sweet now.

I LOVED sweets and pastries, now I can barely stand to chew up my Flintstone vitamines. ANd the Tums that I have to chew for calcium are WAY too sweet. I am however craving olives!!! Go figure.
