How can I eat more food?

[Anonymous]

My dietitian told me I need to eat more food... she said what I'm eating doesn't sound like enough. The problem is my appetite is very small, and I can't force myself to eat more food.

Here's what I usually eat:

Breakfast: A small bowl of cheerios
Lunch: A banana and 100 calorie yogurt
Dinner: A few carrot sticks, dipped in Hummus

I think this is enough though.

Exercise or just be more active. Spending that energy will cause your body to demand more food for the energy thus making you hungry. Do it because you currently eat very very little. Unhealthy.

do you lose weight by eating these stuff?

if you keep on losing weight, then maybe you should start eating more...

Yes, I have lost 30 pounds in the past.

[Klaatu51]

then stop this diet and eat more, if you keep on losing

[Asker]

Ok, I'll try to. It won't be easy.

i can feel you. my BMI went under 18 a whle ago, and i had to eat more so i can go back to 18-19 range.

[Asker]

The same thing has happened to me. I was so underweight :/

Not enough. I wld be extremely hungry with that diet. You need to increase the intake and add in more healthy food if you keep losing weight.

Eat more calorie dense food so you don't have to eat more.
Cheese
Peanut butter
Anything whole fat..
You do need more

Add another piece of fruit to every meal. That's a start.

It is not. You need more fatty foods and richer foods swapping in for these calorific deficient things.

For instance swap the carrot sticks for some type of soup with greater fat content. You don't need to "eat more" so much as you need to eat more efficiently. Same with lunch. You need just a sandwich. It has more nutritional value.

drink something heavy like milk or eat peanut butter, you need more sustenance.
