Different surgeons have different plans. Mine is also a "3 meals a day, no snacks" plan. However, I don't feel hungry. 

What, exactly, does your daily meal plan look like? How many ounces of liquid do you get a day? How many grams of protein? Are you taking a PPI such as Prilosec or Nexium?

Plans differ. I eat 3 meals a day and one protein shake. Have you had surgery yet?  Does your doctors office have a dietitian you can talk to about your eating plan?

I am 11 months out from surgery. I drink 70 oz of water a day, I eat a lot of protein every meal hardly any veggies. And I work out about 1 hour a day.

Sorry my calories are about 800-900 a day.

I have always eaten five times a day.  My meals now average about 300 calories and I am over seven years out.

As others have stated all plans are different. Mine is three meals and two snacks - NUT wants me to eat ever 4 hours or so so my metabolism doesn't slow down. Your surgeons office should provide you with a clear plan as to their expectations. Good luck!
