Hello! Hope you all have had a wonderful Sunday :)

It's almost 8pm and I still have 911 calories left for the day. Should I try to eat more? I've eaten today and I'm full. I accidentally missed breakfast, but I ate a 12" turkey sub from Subway for lunch, an orange for a snack, and a bean burrito and taco for dinner. Based on my current weight, I'm allowed 2000 calories a day. Oh and I also walked for an hour today so I did gain some extra calories from exercise. 911 just seems like a lot.
Thanks!

  • If you are full, I wouldnt eat. I would only eat when you are hungry.

    Me too. Some days my allowance doesn't cover my appetite, sometimes it's more than enough. It all balances out.
