Is it possible to i get fat by eating a lot of high fiber foods?

Yes: High fiber foods are great but if you eat too much of any food, the number of calories you intake can exceed the number of calories you burn in a day. And that can lead to gaining weight. So do stick to foods that have a lot of fiber but also eat in moderation.
