Getting in enough calories

stonjalm

Hi,
I have changed my diet to clean eating, but I am finding it very difficult to get up to 1,000 calories a day. I am not intending to eat so few calories, I just have a hard time filling my day with snacks to up my intake...
Any good healthy snack suggestions? I'm eating tons of fruit and veggies for breakfast and lunch, so maybe I just need to swich to eating something else at meal time and leaving the fruits and veg to snack time?
Any advice is appreciated

This is easy. Make a shake.

1 cup oats (blend these first - into a powder)
2 cups whole milk
2 scoops of protein powder
1 frozen banana

There you go. 1000+ calories in one single shake. Drink it all before you start to feel full.
