Lots of calories in those and in avocados. Meat and eggs too, but have to be careful to balance your meal with alkaline veggies as meat is more acid forming. But, if you're like me, you may need a fair amount of meat protein to keep from getting shaky. If you still have crawlies then you might not be ready for the quinoa and brown rice. But try a few of those artisan nut thin crackers I mentioned in a recent post. They are mostly made of nuts and seeds. And a good carrier for almond and sunbutter. Last thing I've also found that I think has a fair amount of calories is a black bean and kale soup. It's the kind of soup that comes in a box and might be made by Imagine. There's no added sugar or yeast in it so it didn't trigger crawlies for me and it's filling. Hope this helps. Im sure others have some good ideas, too. Stay strong and looking forward to getting well with you! Mary
