How many meals were you guys able to intake in a day about 5 weeks post op?

3 small meals and 2 -3 snacks

3 meals usually but if I'm out and busy or drinking a lot of fluids I sometimes have only two just because I don't feel as much hunger

3 small meals and 2 small snacks

Same but l usually stick with 1 snack in the early evening and maybe a cup of tea in the afternoon

3 meals, 2 snacks. Eating about 2oz per mini meal. I was hungry every 2 hours until I could start getting in more protein per meal.

About how many ounces per meal

About 3 ounces per meal and I was told to increase my meals to 4 per day as my calories are too low according to my NUT. I need at least 800 at this point and I'm 5 weeks out.

3 meals and 3 snacks. My snacks are all after dinner and before I go to bed though. I've always had that problem...snacking at night. I still snack, but I've replaced them with:

Popsicle

sugar free jello with light whipped cream

apple slices or an orange

40 calorie beef jerky

Russell Stover sugar free chocolate

handful of almonds
