    Homemade trailmix with roasted but not salted nuts is filled with good fats and has the calories. Avocado on whole wheat toast is yum. Homemade smoothies filled with anti oxidents are <3

    These are some of my favs :)

    1 avocado is 300-something calories. I eat at least 1/2 per day. Almond butter is good and so are baked yams/sweet potatoes.

    Avocado, full fat dairy like yoghurt, ricotta, cheese, olive oil dressing on salad or roasted veggies drizzled with olive oil, nuts, peanut butter, bananas, red meat, grainy bread, brown rice..... basically regular food, not the "diet" version.
