1400, lifting and gaining weight

Chances are you're eating more than you think. I'm just going to go through Sunday's dinner:

Sunrise - Medium Firm Tofu, 340 grams (1/5 package) - Did you weight this exactly, or did you eyeball 1/5th of a package?
Endangered Species - Dark Chocolate Almonds & Sea Salt, 1 square - 1 square can massively vary in size, weigh that square
Onion - Onion, 50 grams - Looking through I can see lots of entries for onion at 50g. Somehow I doubt that every single onion you use is exactly 50g. Don't fudge the numbers, put in exactly how much it weighed
Mushrooms, white, raw, 1 cup, pieces or slices - How tightly packed are your mushrooms? Weigh them
Cheese - Parmesan, grated, 1 tablespoon - Wonderfully dense cheese. Is that a heaped tablespoon? or flat? Also 27kcals for a tablespoon of cheese seems very low. Honestly I'd expect that to be more like 100kcals (if not more)
Egg - Egg, 1 large - You can weigh your eggs. Also 72kcals seems a little low for a large egg
Irish on the Vine Tesco - Tomatoes, 2 tomato - How big is a tomato? Weigh it
Sauce, fish, ready-to-serve, 1 tbsp - Don't use a generic entry, use the entry that matches the brand that you're using.
Peanut Butter, 2 tsp(s) - Peanut butter is very calorie dense, and is notoriously often under logged. Weigh your peanut butter. Chances are you're eating at least double (if not more) the amount you think you're eating

So just looking through that one meal I can see lots of places where your logging could be stronger.
(fyi, taking a look at your numbers, I could expect that this meal is probably more like 855kcals as opposed to the 549kcals that you've logged. This is only one meal and that's an additional 316kcals)

Oh and I've seen multiple entries for 0.66tbsp of olive oil. Do you have a 0.66 measure or are you eyeballing that? Because that seems like a really random number, and honestly, it makes me wonder if you're being honest with yourself and your logging.
