Ok, here are some of the food choices that have helped me add inches. They are all pretty soft - and no I did not eat them all in one sitting.
Breakfast:
Two egg American cheese omelets
A Starbucks Frappachino (any flavor, they are all fattening)
Waffles or Pancakes with ice-cream, whipped cream, fruit or maple syrup
Lunch:
Chinese food
Ham and cheese calzones
Pasta, pasta, pasta
Dinner:
Mexican food
Creamy Soups
Pasta, pasta, pasta
Dessert:
Chocolate pudding
Cheese Cake
Flan
Ben & Jerry's (ice-cream brand in the states)
I havent explored additional alternate soft food choices yet. But hey I have 12 months more to go, plenty of time.
