Eating to few Calories

Hey I need abit of advice,

I have read lots of posts on here about always eating all your calories, most of the time I dont and its only because I am not hungry, I could eat them but if I did I would most probably spend the extra cals on choc or crisps etc which could lead to a binge so I choose not to.

Should I eat them?

    Hmm, you'll get alot of varying responses. I guess it's really what works for you, I found eating them all back didn't work for me and I didn't lose weight....although funnily enough now I'm maintaining I can eat them all back and it's fine! Also, everyone will say you'll need to net at least 1200 cals a day and if you're on this calorie allowance you should eat enough bakc to keep you at 1200.

    You should eat your minimum calories to keep your metabolism humming. Add some nuts or avocado to your meals or choose full fat over low fat/fat free. That way you're getting in more calories without adding a lot of extra food. Bottom line, you need to eat to lose.
