Hm, I've found it helpful to eat lots of dried fruit (coupled with even more water) -- lots of calories, fiber, nutrients that your body needs to heal. I haven't lost more than five pounds in the past month as long as I eat plenty of fruit, mostly figs, prunes, apricots, papaya, dates, etc. Putting almond butter on them is good too. I don't know if that helps or not, but it seems like if you can find fissure-friendly alternatives that are also high caloric then you can enjoy eating enough to not lose weight (and knowing that your fissure won't hate you for it the next day).
