    Cant get enough calories

    When I first started to lose weight, earlier this year, I was pretty much in starvation mode (didnt know much about nutrition, etc)...after losing like 20ish pounds, i found this site, and have just recently started eating healthy, multiple meals a day, etc. My only problem is, I cant seem to reach the 'healthy' amount of calories.. this is what I ate today (so far).

    Breakfast: 1/3 Cup Oats, 1/2 Cup Skim Milk, 1 Scoop ON Whey, < teaspoon nat peanut butter

    Meal 2: 3 Large spoonfuls of fat free cream cheese, sugar free jello (blended into a smoothie type thing)

    Meal 3: Grilled chicken breast on whole wheat, lettuce, onion, celery

    Meal 4: 1/2 Cup skim milk, 1 Scoop ON Whey

    Snack in between 4 and 5: 2 pieces of beef jerky

    Dinner: Havent had yet, will be meats/vegetables though

    This doesnt nearly reach 1800 calories, and I cant figure out how to eat more, plus Im usually not hungry when I do eat =/

    Any advice?

    meals should be at least 300 calories. your meal #2 is horrible, i want to ask if you're joking. seriously, if you were overweight before i'm sure you won't have trouble upping your cals. just eat good foods, it's no big deal. don't be afraid to eat good foods, they're good for you.
    i don't want a sig

    That was just today, usually my second meal is a piece of grilled chicken with a vegetable.

    And I was overweight mainly due to eating extremely unhealthy foods, not so much overeating
