I just had a BRC(1.00) for lunch. I checked the calories and it is over 400 calories. It is a real tiny burrito with rice(very dry), beans and no cheese. How can it be 400 calories? I am still hungry though.

    I hate it when I eat something small and it turns out to be super-high in calories! This is why MFP is such a great tool. Once upon a time I would have eaten something like that- probably two of them- and thought I was doing myself a favor!

    Don't beat yourself up over it- we learn through experience. Sucks that you're still hungry though. :(

    Yeh..hopefully drinking water will ease the hunger.
