Hey! Yay, for being more than halfway! And, sorry your appetite has not fully returned ) : this is not uncommon. Making sure you get enough protein is going to be really important especially now that you are beyond the halfway point so I do think the addition of protein powder to mix in anything is a good idea. You can mix it in yogurt and milk, too! Do you do smoothies? This could be a good way to get in more vegetables. I would also try just more bland foods with little to no seasoning. Outside of garlic, if you aren’t sensitive to onions, this is another way to up veggie intake and get the flavor. Another option, focusing on raw/cold foods versus cooking everything.
