ThroughStruggle: Forcing that last meal down

Eating has always been one of my strengths. It is the only reason I can zero into, for being a chubby kid.But dare I say, I can eat all the time these days. Instead, hitting the target calories for a day is now a challenge.
With 100% clean food intake, eating is not only boring, but also more voluminous. This is because most of the 'clean' foods are also high in fiber. For instance, a sample meal would be serving of lentils with brown rice and veggies along with an omelette. This is a little under 600 calories, but fills me up like a 1000 kcal meal.
Consequently, I find myself force feeding most of the times and find it hard to sleep on the stomach, which is kinda my favorite sleeping position..lol.
To add to my misery, I plan to boost my intake to 4000 kcal in a few weeks. I am currently eating a little over 3500 kcal daily with around 400g carbs and 260g protein.
I hope I don't have to resort to appetite boosters!
