Only kitchen counter outlets are required to be GFCI protected

Sort of...

If it's within 6 feet of the sink (read 'water'), it has to be GFCI
protected.

get a 200 amp new main with the maximum nuber of breaker slots
available. service entrance cable and meter can must be replaced when
upgrading to larger amp main panel

14 gauge wire is for 15 amps max

12 gauge for 20 amp max

kitchen outlet circuits must be GFCI protected.
