    Hi, my name is Jamie, I've been using MFP for over two weeks now and its going ok, I've lost 4 pounds so far, happy days. The only problem I'm having is finding food which is high in calories but low in sugar and carbs. I know about fish and eggs but im not really a fan of either so any suggestions would be great. Cheers.

      Higher fat and protein foods will be relatively high in calories.

      A few are nuts, meat, cheese, plain Greek yogurt, and peanut butter. Read the label for the peanut butter, some have added sugar.

      Hell, that's easy. Nuts. And oils. And scrambled eggs with butter. And my all time addictive favorite, Trader Joe's Almond Butter with Flaxseeds. It's unreal. Now, nuts are not zero carb but pretty low in carbs. You cannot eat too many if you are trying to go fully ketogenic. Other things are full fat plain yogurt and pretty much any type of cheese.

      Chhhhheeeeeese. The real stuff, not the plasticky stuff.
      Feta
      cheddar
      Gouda
      Edam
      mozzarella
      parmesan (Parmigiano-Reggiano)
      anything goat's milk-related, I'll be eating it and highly recommending it ;)

      Then there's the old chicken breast topped with more cheese all melty melty (how high calorie are you needing?)
      Red meat
      Grass fed beef
      Lamb
      etcetera
