    It depends on how many calories you're talking about? If it's around 100, I wouldn't worry about it. Or, just have an apple or something. If it's more, then try to eat a little more throughout the day.

    As long as you've had at least 1200 calories and it's only a rare occurrence... :smile:
  • I try not to have more than a 100 calories leftover. and believe me, me not being hungry is rare:laugh: and I always meet my 1200 calorie intake, it was just some exercise calories i had left over. thanks for the input

    I never have calories left over... i think i need to re think my food or something.. I hardly ate any food and I'm already over my calories and starving! :tongue: oh well.

    Monitor how you feel...you might be fine, or it might wear you down.
    I've started a new Rx that completely cuts off my appetite...I totally forget about eating while I'm at work because I'm so busy and just never hungry. Lately I haven't been eating enough and I can definitely tell--I'm more sore, more tired, less motivated to work out, and just plain not getting in enough nutrients, and that's at 1200 cals/day. Between work and exercise, I need much more than that, so sometimes it comes down to choking down an extra PB sandwich so I don't crash after work.
