I'm post-surgery and having a hard time re-introducing food, currently working with a dietitian. Part of it is because I'm recovering from a severe case of acute pancreatitits, and part of it is psychological and the fear of having pain when I eat. And though I normally eat waaay too much, I now have little appetite.
It's expensive but what can be helpful is protein drinks. If you're having pain or stomach distress I recommend something like Ensure Clear or Premier Protein Clear.
I was on a clear liquid diet for a couple of weeks and the first week I was just having popsicles and jello and broth and felt like shit, was probably getting 300-500 calories in a day, no appetite. The GI doctors were garbage on helping me, but I went to a registered dietitian and she worked with me to get more nutrition in. Those two drinks have been extremely helpful. I try to get at least 1000 calories and 60 grams of protein in a day, and with those drinks I feel sooooo much better. Living on sugar water (popsicles and jello) and salty water (broth) is not good for more than a day or two!
