    Does that mean you ate 682 for the day? Did that include exercise calories? Were you hungry? I have a few days here and there where I eat less, just because I'm not as hungry.

    In general, your daily calorie goal in MFP has your deficit built in. You want to stick to it, or close, to make sure you're getting adequate nutrition. But everyone has days where they are over or under. If it's really intermittent, it's not a big deal and will average out over time.

    Good luck! :smiley:

    Problem solved: eat dinner.

    This is the quote I meant. Just eat a solid dinner.

    It's actually how I eat most days. I eat VERY small breakfast and lunch and save the bulk of my calories so I can have pretty much anything I want for dinner...and a treat afterwards ;)

    I'd probably mow through some Oreos.
