I'm not eating enough!

Hi everyone and Happy New Year!

I went to see my dietician last weeks for my 6 weeks post-op check-up. She said that I am doing great with my excerise and vit/minerals, but my weight loss could be more. She said it's due to the fact that I'm not eating enough (go figure). She has now increased my calories to 800/day. On a good day, I'm lucky if I can get 600 calories in (that includes drinking 2 Isopure Protein drinks). Some days I have no appetite and it's very difficult for me to eat. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Katie

Im im the same boat! I just am not hungry im also having the issue with all foods grossing me out ugh this to shall pass right?! I sure hope so!

It will pass and you heal from surgery... I am 9 months post op and there are days where I really have to force myself to eat but then there are days where I am hungry too. I am a slow loser too but I make sure I get my protein, water and vitimans in. I really don't count the calories but I get a general idea of what I am eating as its about 1000 calories a day.

Mine said the same thing at my six week appointment. 800-900 calories and at least 70 in protein. I got 70 in today and feel crappy.

I am hardly eating any calories. I have an app. on my phone that counts everything. I never get 500 calories in a day. But I am full and try lots of diffferent things. I am hoping it will change now that I just moved to mushy foods. But those foods feel you up even more than the other ones. I don't get my protein in either. I think I would be losing alot better if I could get both of those up.
