    I don't believe any of us said anything about Junk food, we all pretty much recommend calorie dense healthy choices.

    McD is pretty unhealthy the last time I checked. Of course, I could be wrong. I was simply adding my two cents. But I guess things got misconstrued. Carry on.

    Ah yes, one person said an unhealthy option, which I took as sarcastic to be honest, Because like I said 1200 to me is a walk in the park. funny that you zoned in on that one.

    I will revise...
    The Majority of us who respond to this post Suggested nothing but healthy options to help make one's calorie intake higher, except for one person, whom several of us quoted, as they have the general gist of how some of us feel about a person's inability to meet 1200 calories a day.

    Bacon. Seriously, though, nuts, PB, cheese, proteins, protein shakes a snickers bar (okay not serious again on that last one).

    Here's a recipe:

    Milk of choice-1 cup (90 calories or more)
    2 T Peanut Butter (180-200 calories)
    Frozen Cherries-1 Cup (90 calories)
    Protein Powder (130 calories)
    Spinach or Kale (10 calories)
    Emergen-C Vitamin Packet (25 calories)
    2 T Chia Seeds (60 calories)

    Minimum of 585 calories. You could even add in a banana and a bit more milk for another 150 easy calories. Then you can sip your calories.

    Also, a teeny tray of Amy's gluten free vegan macaroni and cheese has 520 calories. I'm not saying eat that every day, but it is nearly half your calories on a day you don't feel like dealing with food.
