Peanut butter. Avocado. Mayonnaise. Full-fat dairy. Ice cream. Chocolate....2

Eat more of the foods you used to eat, just smaller portions. You didn't end up needing to lose weight by not eating enough.3

All the above!!0

Nutritionally sound, calorie dense food such as:
peanut butter
avocado
nuts
olive oil
banannas
mangos
granola
whole grain bread1 -
If I eat fatty foods I go over my macros though. Does this not affect my goal?0

If you're really struggling, try a shake with the correct nutrients within. Build yourself up and allow your body to get used to the amount of 'macros' going into it, then swap the shakes for food.0

I view protein as a minimum, and in theory fat is as well (although I'm usually short on my fat intake). I would not be concerned if you go over your fat goal as long as you are still getting enough protein in (and carb level is a personal preference depending on how it affects you and how much you like them).0 -
How do you calculate your calories? How much weight are you trying to lose?0

...and going over in fat is not something to worry about. I go over every day and I'm at a healthy weight.1
