I'm using Alli, and to be most effective, I need to eat 3 meals a day with 19 grams of fat and about 500 calories. I'm having trouble coming up with options. And yes, the idea is eat as close to 19 g as possible without going over. Calories should be 400-500.

Breakfast is the hardest for me. I've got to get some fat, but can't go overboard.

Thanks in advance!

    We had Beans-&-Weenies for dinner. Not the healthiest meal, but it fits your criteria. :)
    1 cup Bush's Best Original Baked Beans
    1 link Oscar Mayer Selects Premium Beef Franks (No nitrates or nitrites added)
    1 large cucumber, peeled and sliced (on the side, not mixed in)
    =
    494 calories & 19 grams fat

    Try making a quinoa porridge - add a little (very little) milk and some brown sugar and dried cranberries . . . until you get the amount of fat you are looking for.

    Good luck!

    Try a peanut butter & bananna sandwich on potato bread. That'll give you 360 calories and 17g fat . . . take an extra spoon of peanut butter and you've fulfilled your stated fat requirements.

    Best of luck,
