It is important to get adequate protein and calories so you do not lose too much weight. Good food will help you deal with your illness and treatment side effects better.
Change your diet to increase caloric intake:
Eating when hungry, not just during meals.
Eat 5 or 6 small meals a day instead of 3 large.
Keep healthy snacks on hand.
Not filling of liquids before or during your meals.
Ask your doctor or nurse if you have a glass of wine or beer with your meal. It can make you feel like eating more.
Ask others to prepare food for you. You may feel like eating, but you might not have enough energy to cook.
Make eating more enjoyable:
Use a soft lighting and relaxing music.
Eating with family or friends.

Try new recipes or new foods.
If you feel, make some simple meals and freeze them to eat later. Ask your doctor or nurse about "Meals on Wheels or other programs that bring food to your home.
