Another thing, I think you're really misjudging your calorie intake if you think your breakfast is only 350 calories.
For example a glass of milk is 110 calories, 1.5 oz of almonds/walnuts/pistachios is 250, a cup of plain oatmeal 225-250. One banana is 110. Say you make yourself oatmeal (225), sprinkle some walnuts (200), blueberries (50), add a spoon of avocado oil (110), eat a banana (110) and you end up with about 700 calorie breakfast.
Now come lunch time, imagine eating just a Chipotle chicken burrito bowl with brown rice, black beans, fajitas and cheese (no tortilla (320cal), or a bag of chips (850cal). That's 650 and pretty light at least for me. Most likely you're ending up with 1000cal for lunch.
Dinner of 300 calories is really a bowl of salad with one tiny 3oz chicken thing.
Is this your meal plan?
