I worry that I can eat too much

I am almost 6 weeks post op and I worry that I can eat too much. I never feel full. I am hungry all the time. I cab eat 3-4 oz of protein at a time. I calles my nutritionist last week and she told me that I am not eating enough. I limit the amount I eat at one time but I still try to eat 6 small meals a day like my surgeon and nutritionist say to. I usually get in around 500 - 600 calories a day. I just feel so guilty all the time for eating. I try not to eat any carbs. My nutritionist told me when I called her to stop counting carbs and calories. I only need to count sugar and fat, that we need carbs just not the bad ones. She also said that I should be ating 1000 calories a day, to make sure I don't skip any meals. I am so scared that I will never lose all my weight. So far I am only down 27 pounds. I had so hoped to have lost at least 50 pounds by now. I walk 30 minutes a day and drink at leat 64 oz of water and usually reach my protein goal of 74 grams. I feel like such a failure....
