Im usually under 400 calories a day, What can happen long term?

I an 5 weeks post op and wondering about the possible side effects of possibly eating too little. Typically my daily is breakfast - 2 string cheese - 160 cal. 16 gr. protein, lunch 1/2 c. no fat cottae cheese - 80 cal. 13 g. proein and supper 1/2 c. chicken breast - 130 cal. and 23 g. protein. This is only about 370 calories a day. 52 g. of protein. Always at least 60 oz. of water a day. However this weekend I got som protein bars in the hopes of upping my potein and got so full from one 2 oz bar that's all I ate all day both sat. and sun. so for 2 days in a row it was only about 200 calories a day. I am just wondering how long I can safely only eating less than 400 caloris a day, o should i already be trying to increase it to more. 5 weeks out of surgery and I have lost 32 lbs. Thanks.
