Concerned, I'm consistently under my calorie limit

Ok, so for the past week I've been eating when hungry and drinking about 6 glasses (8 oz) of water a day (which equates to about a glass per meal/snack). I try to eat at least one fruit, one veggie, some protein, a serving of dairy, and some fiber every day like I should. I don't exercise, so I'm not burning any calories to put myself under. I just don't eat that much, and don't have the desire to eat a whole lot.

However, at the end of the day, when I'm ready to go to bed and I'm logging in my food diary, I'm finding that I've been consistently under my calorie limit by a couple to a few hundred calories. If it was only 50 or less I wouldn't be worried at all, but I'm not sure if I should be concerned about this so if you have any advice/experience or anything, feel free to share. If you need to know more in order to respond, let me know

Why not have a cheat day once a week or at least a cheat meal and eat basically whatever you want. This will make up those cals you didn't eat during the week. If you're eating clean, then just eat more on the weekends.

If that doesn't work for you, then try to plan your days in advance. That way you can make sure you're not short and, if you are, adjust accordingly.

Add in an ounce of nuts or slice up some avocado to add some calories and good fat.

I end up eating when I'm not hungry almost every day because I want to keep losing.
