Almost no fat diet

There are ways to add fats that you might enjoy more than switching from fat-free to full-fat versions of what you already eat, like sprinkling a few seeds or nuts on a salad, adding a small amount of avocado to what you already eat, or adding a small amount (1 tsp) of olive oil to some pasta. Maybe try gradually swapping in fats for carbs or protein or whatever, so you don't feel like you'll "go over".

Oh and make sure you're using accurate database entries as much as possible. You might be eating more fat than you realize anyway.

Don't worry, you can still have your fat-free greek yogurt! Rule #1 of eating: only eat what you enjoy.

Definitely the way to go: a few slivered almonds on green beans, sauté some asparagus in a little butter, put some peanut butter on celery, add seeds and nuts to a salad. Save some calories for a bit of ice cream. As long as you are accurately tracking your calories, you will not gain weight. And since fat is satiating, you won't necessarily miss the volume of food you were eating.

Maybe you could get "volume" in your diet from non starchy vegetables instead of low fat products? Then supplement with more moderate portions of healthy fats.
