Ideas for high-calorie meals that are not too filling

anhnugget

Hey everyone,

I've been struggling to gain weight in the past few years. Been skinny my whole life (5'2 currently 96lb). Even when I managed to get to a healthy BMI, I lost it quite quickly after 3 weeks of weird eating schedule.

I work full time/studying and applying to grad school so I find it quite hard to eat as frequently/prepare healthy and calorie packed meal.

I'd love to hear your ideas for high calorie meals that won't fill me up too quickly.
I have a small appetite that I'm trying very hard to expand. I understand that in order to gain weight, I have to force myself to eat more. Just looking for food that won't leave me absolutely stuff hallway through the dish so I can keep eating and reach my calorie goal for the day.

Thank you!

Your question is kind of an oxymoron. However liquids are great. Shakes with double cream, peanut butter and sugar will be high calorie

I just made a creamy chicken dish with pasta it comes to almost 1000 cals. Pretty much adding heavy cream and butter to anything.. FTW!

You have to put yourself in a caloric surplus to gain weight.
At the end of the day that is the most important factor for weight gain
