Today I was 165 exactly. I did 60 crunches with my ab roller, 30 bicep curls on each arm, and then 30 squats about an hour later.

I have some stuff planned for today, but I'm still 640 calories short of my 2050 calorie goal so I'll have to figure out some more things.
Good carb breakfast.
Quick Oats...not the ones in the individual satchels as they are high in sugar.
Just grab a bag of oats (rolled oats is better, but to begin with go for Quick oats as they are creamier. Oats are cheap and are very healthy for you.
You can step up your breakfast oats to the inclusion of half a banana..and/or add 6 almonds cut in half...and/or a squeeze of honey.

Or you can skip the banana, honey and almonds add some frozen berries to your oats. You can find these in the frozen section at your supermarket.

A high protein meal.
Another -1/4 cup of Greek Yogurt with 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon mixed in (I can't eat it without the cinnamon. Pile it on two pieces of toast.

Look next to broccoli and chicken or tuna or salmon with rice.
You'll get you good fats and protein from the fish and chicken...although fish have the higher good fats.

If you're unsure how to cook rice or any of the above dishes, you can YouTube it and then you become better/clever in the kitchen.

Talk to your GP as (s)he may be able to either point you into the right direction of food intake or give you a nutritionist referral.
It seems that they are concerned by being honest with you, so I'm sure they're going to be very willing to help
