Lots of nutsa as snacks..coconut milk is high in fat too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-799690 Wed, 22 May 2013 06:33:15 +0000 Anutka 799690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@allison: I usually eat Russian rye bread which is made with a sourdough starter, not yeast. But depending where you live, you might not find that.<br /> But there are a bunch of different companies that make yeast-free. I know Ezekiel is pretty popular, it's sold in the freezer section.<br /> Another thing I do is try to put hemp seeds or chia seeds on anything/everything (salads, porridge, smoothies, etc). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797568 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:34:17 +0000 allison 797568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebittyhouse: I just got some Theo dark chocolate yesterday! Pretty good! And I love Naked smoothies--hadn't thought about those. The others are great ideas, too! And I'll definitely be checking out Paleo sites; there should be plenty of those around these days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797550 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:31:03 +0000 littlebittyhouse 797550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I EBF and am dairy and soy free - I get creative with snacks because they have to be unprocessed or homemade.

And meat- bison jerky had a lot of calories and protein. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797500 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:21:47 +0000 swurlygurl 797500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My favorite snacks were avocados and nuts. I would just cut open the avocado, sprinkle a little salt on, and eat it with a spoon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797497 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:21:31 +0000 allison 797497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anutka: tell me more about this yeast-free bread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797495 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:21:05 +0000 allison 797495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: yeah, I love cheese and greek yogurt, but they don't seem to agree with LO in large amounts. I'm not sure why I haven't thought to get some almonds! Thanks. And I have eaten some avocados, but I need to get some more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797492 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:20:28 +0000 Anutka 797492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been eating lots of avocado, hummus and putting lots of olive oil on my salads. There are also some delicious yeast-free breads that are quite filling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797483 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:18:38 +0000 yoursilverlining 797483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmmm, well most of my higher calorie snacks include dairy (cheese, full fat yogurt), but what about nut mixes and avocado? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/high-calorie-snack-recs-while-bfing#post-797475 Tue, 21 May 2013 10:16:09 +0000 allison 797475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm EBF and don't think I'm getting enough calories (losing too much weight). I need some snack/meal recommendations with "lots" of calories. I try to not eat processed foods, soy, bread (yeast), or dairy, and I'm at a loss! The only things I can think of are peanut butter and oatmeal...</p> <p>What do you eat? </p>
