Default High fat and high calories in vegan diet??

Hey guys, I just finished my 30 day trial of being vegan, and I'm not sure whether I want to continue or not. I would only go back to being vegetarian, but I just never really felt full on a vegan diet.

I don't blame veganism at all and I think it is the ideal way of eating, but because I am a teenager and I never made the effort to go grocery shopping on my own (and instead tried to instruct my parents to get stuff) I'm sure I missed out on a lot of options.

I'm pretty sure I didn't eat enough calories, especially because I am pretty athletic and have a fast metabolism. I also want to add some fat, because I am skinny, so my question is, what vegan foods are high in calories and/or fat that are easy to obtain. One person suggested healthy oils like olive oil. I'm looking for more food like that.

Thanks a ton
