i got surgery on my knee about 2 weeks ago. i went from being active 6-7 days a week to sitting on my butt in the same position all day. (im not allowed to put weight on it) im gonna be like this for 2 months and i am very worried about gaining weight. yesterday in the morning around 9 am, i ate 2 large helpings of ice cream and i made myself not eat again until 11 that night, and i ate potatoes with vegetables. of course, i drank water in between as to not get hydrated. today i have only eaten a tangerine and a medium portion of ice cream, and that was about 6 hours ago (it's 4.30 now)

so far my stomach hasn't felt hungry, but i feel myself losing concentration on what i'm doing (which is bad, because i have a ton of make up work to do lol). also my head feels kind of heavy..it's weird. so do you think this is healthy? if not how can i eat so that i dont gain weight these next 2 months?

Hi, first of all I would like to say I'm sorry about your knee. My advice for you is to keep track of what you eat so you can eat right three times a day plus a snack and know you are eating right. Instead of not eating the entire day. Since you have a lot of time, I suggest you go to www.mypyramid.gov. You can keep track of what you eat in a fun way (fun to me at least). You wouldn't have to worry about your weight anymore.
