    Dunno about the creamer though. Sounds interesting. I’m usually sold at the word Reese’s.

    There is now Reese's whipped cream.

    The sentence that changed my life. <3

    I could. But I don't want to just eat healthy food. That's boring and I would give up after a month or two. I always have something sweet at night, even when eating 1200 calories, I fit it in.

    Why do you think healthy food is if you think it's boring and restricts anything sweet?

    i also have an issue about not eating enough as i just don't like to eat. one way to add calories without realizing youre eating is to add butter and oils to everything. i even put butter on my meat. i put mct oil in my coffee. buttered coffee is also really good. use whipping cream instead of table cream. fats pack a lot of calories. you can also throw some cheese and cashews in your salads.

    Some days (more than I would like) I find my intake has been way too low and the heat reduces my appetite aswell. I found a peanut butter, banana, vanilla protein powder and chia seed smoothie is both delicious and filling at around 300 cals depending what liquids etc you add to it (l put coffee in mine if I have it for breakfast...yummy).


    How do you fit all of this in 300 calories? A small banana and a tiny 2tbs serving of peanut butter are already 300cals. Or maybe I’m the only one who can’t get by with that little pb 🤷🏼‍♀️LOL
    Do coffee and pb go well together? I saw a Reese’s creamer at the store a while ago and couldn’t decide if it was appealing and repulsive haha

    Hi

    My receipe is as follows -

    2 teaspoons Jiff (lower sodium and sugar) 63 cals still tastes very peanutty
    126g (medium) banana 110 cals
    1/2 scoop Pure Protein Vanilla Flavour 75 cals
    1 teaspoon chia seeds - 20 cals
    2oz skim milk 23 cals
    1/4 cup coffee 0 cals
    3 ice cubes 0 cals

    So around about 300 cals, it makes just under a pint once blended and I'm stuffed after I've drunk it with the rest of my coffee.

    :smiley:

    If you mean by junk food, the stuff that more or less just adds calories, I can think of lots of nutrient dense food to top up on and add them in to whatever I'm eating. Avocado, nuts, beans, fruit of all sorts, bananas are good. Greek yoghurt is tasty and can feel quite rich. No need to undereat even if you are trying to avoid excess fried sugar and salt type food (nothing wrong with good fats before anyone shouts at me - I use avocado and full fat yoghurt a lot!) Nothing wrong with a treat every now and then either, I have a piece of chocolate every evening - the last thing I eat daily!

    I could easily eat 6000 cals a day of so called healthy food.

    Me too. 5k would be just from the cashew nuts!

    I hate the junk food label. I eat everything. I love fruit and veg and I also love icecream, cakes, sweets etc.

    IIFYM is life. I don't like labeling food good or bad.
