I assume you mean reversal colostomy.  Protein will increase appetite.  Until your digestion is truly back on track, something easy to fix and digest is ordinary scrambled eggs (with nonfat cheese), use a teaspoon olive oil in nonstick pan to cook them on medium heat, add salt and pepper to taste, eat them hot.  Yum, yum.  In addition, if you will exercise more, even just a long easy walk around the neighborhood, it will also increase your appetite.  You might try an alka seltzer between meals if your stomach is upset, since nausea is one of the reasons why people will lose their appetite.
