I'm sorry... cravings can be tough.  I don't know when you had surgery (can you list your surgery date in your signature or under your name?) but I'm guessing you are early out.  There'll be plenty of time for veggies later.  And then when you are further out, then fruit.  But save that scarce space for protein right now.    You'll be happy you did.

3 weeks is way to soon. Sorry!! You will get to have them down the road... Patience.... I know it's hard. You are going to have MANY cravings along the way and just need to take it one day at a time!!
It gets easier...it really does!

I was having some raspberries mixed in with my greek yogurt at that point- started by mixing in a little jam for flavor (can't take the plain stuff...) and progressed to the whole fruit. Try a little to see how you tolerate it.
