6 weeks post surgery how much should I be eating

I had my surgery on August 1, 2018. I'm trying different solid foods as per doctors instructions. I'm only able to eat one ounce of protein for a meal, then I'm too full to eat any vegetables. I drink my 50 to 60 grams of protein in my shakes everyday. Does anyone know how many small meals a day I should eat at this point. Right now i'm eating 3 meals and if I have a snack it's an ounce of nuts.

I had my sleeve on 7/31. I've been told that ideally I should aim for 3 meals and 2 snacks. I was told that 1 shake can be a meal replacement with a goal of 60-90 g of protein per day. I usually start my day with a premier shake and get the rest though food.
