Disappointed in weight loss. Can't eat enough calories. [View all]

Ok, weird situation. Been having trouble eating for a month at least, I am getting between 600 and 1000 cals a day based on my estimates which are fairly accurate. I was drinking way too much full-sugar pop prior, like 6 cans a day prior to August, completely quit.

47 yo male, 6 ft tall, about 200 lbs when started. Been walking for 3 weeks, avg 5 miles a day.

Now lost about 7 lbs maybe. Feel it should be more.

I think it's due to poor eating, not enough cals. Trying to do better, but hard with no appetite.

Thoughts? Suggestions?
