Problems eating?

I am very overweight. But not because of what I eat....more the fact I don't eat I think   I had a gastric surgery in april to repair a very rare hernia and ever since I have no appetite.
I'm suppose to eat about 2k a day but I have to force myself to eat almost every time. For "breakfast" 5 hours after I woke up and it barely came to 250 calories O.O I have no idea how I am suppose to eat that much. That was hours ago and I still feel like I ate too much :-S any tips or ideas? I want to eat healthy but geez I'm thinking I might get sick trying to eat enough healthy food to hit 2k calories a day O.O

well i read that later in your pregnancy your calorie intake needs to go to about 3,000 to 3,300 a day

Somone mentioned considering how overweight I am, that I probably wouldn't need to eat that much more since the baby and my body has plenty to feed off of lol Will ask the doctor when I see her but it's two weeks away

hope this helps  

I wouldn't eat any set meals, just small frequent healthy snacks throughout the day should be enough.

Quoting Momma x 2:" I wouldn't eat any set meals, just small frequent healthy snacks throughout the day should be enough."

right.... 6 small meals a day and nothing too heavy before you go to bed light snacks try to stay away from eating things with lots of sodium and high fructose corn syrup and sugary things and soda!! course is it normal to gain 5 lbs in 2 weeks?? im 34 weeks and when i was at 30 weeks i weighed 114 went to the docs again and weighed the same 114 at 32 weeks just went yesterday and now im at 119 so i gained 5 lbs in 2 weeks i was like woah lol

I also had gastric surgery your stomach is so small it's hard to eat try snacking little bits here and there I know it's tough but you can do it

oh yeh I have IBS I can't eat anything with sugar or syrup, makes me sick as a dog   I've never liked soda, I only drink water or water with lemon juice in it when I'm feeling froggy lol I'm the lamest fat chick ever. Sometimes I just want to eat a cake so I at least feel like I deserve the troubles of being a lardass XD

awe im sure your very beautiful dont put your self down like that your not fat your pregnant  

I wish! lol No I was 300 last year, then got sick and lost 50 lb then had my surgery. They weighed me in at 250 when I went in for my first appt. I have no delusions, I has teh fat lol But I appreciate you trying to be so encouraging and sweet!
I was in a bad accident a few years ago and broke my legs. I was confined to bed for months and it took months to relearn how to walk so I was in a wheelchair. Gained a LOT of weight from that. I am still far from mobile so walking or doing zumba is out, I tried and ended up breaking one of the screws in my leg   but I'm going to try to get an exercise bike so I can work out without putting weight on my legs, I am hoping that will help at least tone it up some so I'm less santa-y ;)

  Less than 500 calories between breakfast and lunch  ((( I'm NOT hungry. I feel so full and blech right now, and so full already, I'm going to force myself to eat something but I think it's still gonna put me way under  

Managed a whole 831 calories today :-S

Where is that idiotic smurf who said I was fat for eating too much? lol
