Not enough calories!

camillex90

No matter what I eat in a day I find it hard to eat the calories that I am supposed to. Today I ate more than usual but came under the calorie sugesstion by 600 calories! I am scared that if I do not start eating more I am not going to lose weight. Any suggestions?

add some cheese, or peanut butter, or nuts in general those are higher in good calories

also if you open your diary so we can see it we might be able to give you a few suggestions on how to beef up each meal!

I have the same issue myself. I have been adding a protein shake at night before I go to bed which has helped some. You might look at adding a shake or two a day. Goodluck.

Love Nutella! Use whole fat products. I did have a small window when I ran into the same problem, but not anymore. I love to eat and found w/ careful planning I could get it all in. I love graham crackers w/ nutella and strawberry rhubarb jam and a glass of milk. Bananas are good too. I also include almonds, walnuts and olive oil almost everyday. Good luck! Oh yeah, I also bought some snack pack cookies for the days that I burn more calories through excercise.
