Not eating enough??

[mrsbure 0]

I am on mushies and my diet is supposed to consist of 1oz of mushy Protein for each meal plus 3 carnation instant breakfasts in between meals. Also, I can have as many sugar free popsicles and drinks all day. The problem is, today I have had my 3 mushy meals but only 2 carnation instant breakfasts. Some days I only have 2 meals of mushies. The real problem is that I only eat so little because I'm not hungry. I forget to eat. I am afraid I will not lose weight because I'm eating too little. Thoughts? If you think I am eating too little, how do I eat more??

I assume you had surgery recently and are refering to your post-op diet. This is a time for healing. I wouldn't worry too much about not eating enough. You will get your appetite back once swelling from surgery goes down. Be sure to get in your fluids, at least 64 oz a day. Good luck on your journey!

I am 6 days post op and I am having a heck of a time getting food and liquid in. I am just not hungry and once I do my protien shake in the morning I am so full I can not eat. I am working on it:eek:
