I KNOW this is important. I'm having a tough time getting all my calories in, especially on days that I exercise. Any suggestions?

Hi, I try to make up any deficit by having cereal bars available, a bar that is low in sugar but high in carbs. If you are already over on carbs than a low carb breakfast cereal. Hope that helps and good luck.0

hello there... i have the same problem. after a intense workout i dont find myself hungry. but that is the best time to eat cause ur metabolism is up. so after i work out i will make myself eat even if im not hungry. also i find that little protein bars do help. they are small enough where u dont feel like ur eating alot but could make you feel full0

What's your calorie goal after you've put in all your workouts and how much below are you when you think you're done?
I would consider high calorie proteinshakes and such if you're actually working out so much that your regular diet gives you too big a caloriedeficit.

When I workout I am allowed almost 1700 calories. Sometimes I have 300-400 calories left during that day.0

As long as you consume 1200 calories every day, I would think you would be fine. That's how much your body needs to function. If you have 1700 after working out and you leave 500-600 free, you should be fine...On the 600 days, eat some veggies and dressing to make up the 100.
I am no expert, but this is how I do it. I feel better, I am energized, and I am still losing weight. Just try to stay over 1200 consumed...0
