I'm not sure how you cook the shrimp or any of the other foods for that matter... but using fat in cooking will increase your calories/fat intake without you having to eat a lot of food.
Varying your vegetables and cooking some with butter or some other form of fat will help too. You might also consider adding some olives or 1/2 avocado to your menus.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
