    Maybe nuts, trail mix or peanut butter and jelly sandwich? Those are all pretty healthy yet calorie dense. Wish I had that problem! ;) Good luck!

    Fruit Smootie!! Super easy to make and probably around 300 to 400 cal.

    Just my opinion and it's not a popular one. I wouldn't FORCE myself to eat a ton, but I would try to make it to at least a 1200 net

    I agree that I wouldn't force yourself to eat (especially if it's only a once in awhile occurance) but if it were me I'd have a smoothie, or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or both!!

    I have to agree with prev. post. I'd get atleast your max "regular" calories in and not worry about eating the exercise calories. I think that will be better for you in the long run. JMHO

    Agreed with the above posts. It's 8:00pm. Not sure what time you go to bed, but eating close to your bedtime isn't really that great of an idea either. Maybe find something that can get you to a safe number (1200) but don't force it down. Just make sure that you have a healthy go-to when something like this happens in the future.
