I am new to this and I am having a hard itme getting enough calories at the end of the day. Any suggestions on high calorie low carb, low fat, and low protein food?.. This has baffled me!

    Well, see, calories have to come from one of those sources, so you can't have low carb AND low fat AND low protein.

    If you need to go over on one of them, I'd suggest protein. It's generally thought that the default levels on MFP are pretty low, and you could take up to 100g a day without any big concerns.

    I wouldn't worry about adding calories at the end of the day IF you are adding healthy, nutritious foods. Carbs are OK - just make sure they are high quality (protien and fiber rich). Fat is OK too - just stay away from saturated and Trans fats. Protien - good too as long as it's not highly processed (sodium, cholesterol)
