I don't think you're getting enough lean protein.
I think you need to add some fats as suggested upthread.
Some fruit would be satisfying too.


Your daily intake wouldn't be enough for me but then I have specific dietary needs and suffer from malnutrition (long story) if I don't eat a truck load of protein daily.

I have a hard time drinking cold water so I tend to drink a LOT of green tea and jasmine tea.

Try adding a few snacks in there and see if you can up your calories.

good luck and welcome to DU weightloss group.
