lol ok as I am trying to break "old habits" and trying to make a lifestyle change I don't want to load up on icecream, chips ect that are full of fat0

I had the same problem when I first started - try and add more calorie dense foods into your diet (avocado, olive oil, nuts, peanut/almond butter, full fat dairy).
Keep at it0 -
Bananas are another food that's packed with calories. It's crazy how we need advice on how to eat more huh?0
