    Maybe incorporate some juices? Though I'm no advocate to "Drinking" your meals, maybe do a couple of smoothies between your meals? That'll add the calories without the extra fat...

    Thats another good idea!!! I usuallyonly drink water when Im home, but adding juices to the mix would help with the calories as well! thanks!!

    You said you don't have time at work for small meals, what about snacks like banana's or granola bars? If you could throw a banana or healthy cereal bar in mid-morning or mid-afternoon that would give you an extra 200-500 calories depending on the brand of bar and the fat in them is usually at least the "healthy" kind.

    Granola bar would be something I might be able to sneak in to the day :wink: Good thought!! these are the kind of ideas I was looking for that could give me a boost with little to no fat grams....besides my all time favorite gummy bears that have no nutritional value lol
