    I tend to go for door number three. Just like when I eat more when I am hungry, I allow myself to eat less when I am not.( As long as you are healthy and not diabetic or something else that requires meal timing.) When you return to normal health, you will feel ready to eat and then some.

    This is my outlook on it also... I do not eat when I am not hungry. I don't worry about shortages calorie wise. Eating when I wasn't hungry is what made me fat to begin with.

    Nuts are a great way to pack in calories with little effort. Good mix of protein/fat in them too.

    You only have to worry if you are eating way too little for around 3 days or more up till then It's not a big issue if you can't really eat.

    I don't understand the question. Unless I'm very sick, I'm never not hungry for chocolate or ice cream.

    I never get sick, but when I'm not craving something (yet I'm hungry) I'll go for oatmeal and granola bars. Bread and something like sweet potato, squash... Yogurt/pudding and fruit. Lightly salted crackers. These all have pretty mellow flavors and textures so you're not left feeling queasy.
