I am kinda new to this eating more and I completely get it and love it. Right now though, I have totaled my day and I still have 537 calories to go. I know Lucia suggested adding flax oil to protein shakes etc, but I am curious how other people are getting their calories. I am eating pretty clean since junk food and sweets are a trigger for me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am on a metabolism reset for another 7 weeks so my calories are high.

    I eat 6 times a day, and my day goes something like this:

    Breakfast - I pretty much always eat Frosted Mini Wheats. I love them and refuse to give them up!

    Morning snack - Tall nonfat toffee nut latte from Starbucks. Another love that I refuse to give up. Then I eat all of the following for a morning snack:
    Pumpkin Protein Muffin or Banana Walnut Protein Muffin
    Trail Mix (usually Archer Farms Sunny Cranberry)
    Piece of fruit

    Lunch - salad with chicken and soup, or half sandwhich and salad, or leftovers from dinner

    Afternoon snack - protein bar (Clif builder bar) or all of the following:
    Chobani 100 cal Very Berry greek yogurt or string cheese
    Carrots & Hummus (or guacamole)

    Dinner - protein and two veggies

    Evening snack - protein shake made with water and sometimes a piece of avocado, fruit, yogurt or beef jerky

    My diary is open so you can see what else I eat.
