Sorry hear about the cancer, but your alive.
Try this for a meal.
Whey protein, lactose free milk, frozen strawberrys and a banana
Blend all that up.
Even if you cant taste it will be cold going down and be filling for a while anyway.
Cook some sweet potatoes and whipped then up like mash potatoes and then put them in the fridge. Eat them Cold (yes cold) If you could taste, it would taste like sweet potato pie filling.
Its cheap and you can eat two or three table spoons a few times a day. One of the best carbs you can eat.
A couple of tea spoons of Peanut butter out the jar is good for some quick calories.
Things I did back in my Body Builder days.
I hope you recover quickly.

Currently down 105lbs since March this year, feel really good. Anyone struggling to lose weight just keep at it I’ve done tons of diets, exercise and fasting before finding what works for “me”. If you don’t get results change things up and try again just whatever you do “don’t give up”.
So I’m currently down 110lbs and pretty sure I’m starting to finally plateau with my current diet. I’ve been doing 1 cheat meal a month so I’ll probably bump it up to 2 cheat meals a month because I’m technically about 15lbs below my target weight. Still not doing any exercise, no muscle loss at all and all by eating all natural lean healthy foods. Physically and mentally I feel amazing!
A few people have asked what my diet has been so I’ll share it, I honestly don’t know anything about nutrition but this has worked for me and fortunately I can eat the same thing everyday.
Breakfast: I toast 2 slices wheat bread and fry 2 eggs in a little butter no seasoning and make a sandwich, I also drink a large black coffee.
Lunch: large black coffee.
Dinner: I cook a large chicken breast in a covered pan and steam a large portion of broccoli OR cauliflower on this meal I use a little low sodium all purpose seasoning and that’s it.
DRINK LOTS OF WATER!
I have done one cheat day a month but even on my cheat day I still avoid sugar and limit my fried food intake normally just have a good dinner and a few beers.

I’m very interested in learning more about calisthenics, I’m generally a minimalist so that’s probably why it interests me so much. Definitely gonna watch some videos and order a book or two on the subject.
What do you generally think about calisthenics vs weight/equipment based exercises?
I'm not the right person to ask as I love Crossfit (and currently F45), but bodyweight work is a key component of any exercise routine.
If you're not working out, start small with pushups, situps, squats, toe raises, pullups (or bar hangs), lunges, and stair climbing (if available, otherwise uphill on a treadmill).
Aside from that, everyone will benefit from throwing in additional stretching. Look up some intro to yoga videos and try things like touching your toes, upward dog, downward dog, and etc.
Thanks for the info.
Will definitely read up on it. Thanks
Keep it in your mind that nutrition (and fitness) is part of your lifestyle. It's not a project with one end-goal then it's over once the goal is reached.
It's a lifestyle.
Keep up the great work!
Feeling better, living better, living longer, are some of the main fruits of your dedication.
