    If you only need 500 calories add some cheese or extra meat, or a couple of handfuls of nuts/seeds to your planned meals. You know what you're getting then!

    I love protein shakes (Quest fan) but Greek yogurt, cottage cheese and bars are other alternatives

  • Protein is my big one for keeping full so I am always on the look out for high protein stuff. I like the Siggi's Skyr (yogurt) and I've been using Huel (food replacement shake/powder) because I also really like that it is vegan.

    Satiety is subjective and personal, but protein is filling for many people, so if you are one of those people, and you struggle to eat enough calories, maybe look outside the box.
