    I have trouble eating enough calories EVERY day. Some days when I get to the end of the night, I still have a couple of hundred calories left. Rather than eating whatever I can find in the house, does anyone have any suggestions on good snacks to eat that will up my calories but not be detrimental to my diet. I am losing very slowly and I think it is partly due to not eating enough every day. I am by no means starving myself, if I am hungry eat. Any help is appreciated!!!
    Well, I don't know if it helps but I have similar issue so occasionally I kill leftover calories with a beer or two. It's good for the kidneys (so I've heard).

    Healthy snack - almonds, maybe a richer breakfast instead of using calories at night

    I have a glass of chocolate milk just about every night at bedtime. It tastes delicious, is filling enough to kill any late night munchies, but not so filling that I feel "OMG, I can't possibly finish this!"

    When I increased my calorie limit to maintenance, I added back some healthier versions of some much missed foods. I loved the social aspect of my coffee habit, but I had to go for no-calorie options. Now, I enjoy my Grande Mocha Frappachino Light w/ sugar free syrup for less than 130 calories. It wasn't worth it during my 1200 calorie days, but now I can enjoy something I really want that's not totally empty calories.

    Almonds are 160 cals for 1/4 cup.
