So I'm new at this stuff. Help me out, please!

I have exercise calories to eat back (since that seems to be what I'm supposed to do...) but I don't know what to eat! Vegetables are low-calorie foods, so I would have to eat a TON to eat back my exercise calories. I'm not hungry enough to eat a truckload of vegetables right now. And I'm trying to avoid unhealthy sugar and stuff like that completely. :ohwell:

I have almost 400 calories left that I've earned from exercise today. What are some healthy foods that will help me with this?

    Try almonds. High in calories, but good for you. Also you may not want to eat all your calories back just in case you under estimated what you ate or what you exercised. I usually leave some to spare as a just in case.

    I pretty much eat what I want! As long as it fits in my daily calories. Or whatever I'm watching for the day, as in carbs, sodium, fat.....

    When I have a ton of calories left, but don't want to binge on totally unhealthy stuff, I really like to have a sliced apple dipped in peanut butter. YUMMY and still healthy!
