    bacon, eggs, avocados, full fat dairy, nuts, nut butters, steak, salmon etc are easy ways to add fat into your diet

    and whole foods > shakes for satiety purposes

    ^^ This! I start my day with eggs. Half my protein and fat goals are met right after I've had breakfast. Then again, I love breakfast which accounts for nearly 600 calories out of my 1200-calorie day. :)

    You NEED to eat more, men need to eat 1800-2000 calories a day, at least. More whole fruits and veggies, more fats, more fiber, etc.

    For breakfast try doing a protein shake if youre crunched on time, oatmeal, eggs, cereal with fruit, fruit smoothies, etc. Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day!

    Good luck!

    Not every body could do that... If I treated Breakfast like the most important meal of the day I would never get too work on time ! I cant eat for the first two hours of waking up by that time its on too snacks prior to lunch. If I eat when I wake up I am regretting it all day. Not every body is the same body !

    cals too low, utterly deficient in fats

    ^ Agree

    With your age, height / weight your maintenance is roughly 2500 cals.

    A starting point
    1g protein per lb body weight
    .4g fat per lb body weight
    fill in the rest with carbs or whatever you want

    This but I think maintenance would be more like 3400ish. 2500 would be a good target to aim for for a good loss though.

    I know! My basic message was "Try to get more calories in", I should have made it more clear :)
