    I wouldn't eat anything loaded with calories/sugar just to meet my goal. No jar of peanut butter or alcohol - I seriously believe this will do more damage than not eating anything. Avocado, fish, big salad, a steak, nuts - yes - but not more than usual. Maybe an extra treat after dinner but not one made of fat and sugar either.

    Whats wrong with fat or sugar? Neither will make you fat... calories do. As long as she meets or is a little under her goal, she will still lose weight.

    i have eaten 867 cals today, :)
    but have had a lot of good food today , my food diary is open for anyone to look at

    Think of it this way. Your car needs 2 gallons of gas to get you to work. You put really high octane gas (really good food) in your car instead of regular (processed/junk food) gas. Unless you put 2 gallons of either gas, you will still run out of fuel before you get to work.

    Screw the food...DRINK WHISKEY!!!!!!!!!
    Like!!

    Seriously though, I used to have loads of cals left in the evening so used to gorge on chocolate to meet those calories, so started to increase my breakfast especially. But now, if I still have cals left, I will actually just grab the jar of peanut butter and a spoon and have a field day! Good luck.

    If not, try to eat SOMETHING calorie dense, chalk it up to an undereat day and try to make up for it tomorrow.

    I personally would eat a baked potato with margarine, broccoli, cheddar and sour cream. Lots of kosher salt and pepper too. :) that's what I'm craving right now, lol.

    Oh wait...you know what? I'd probably drink wine. A bottle of Pinot grigio is 500 calories. I'm having way too much fun spending your calories. ;)

    Eat ALL the cake and pizza!

    Yes, please!

    Or if the OP feels like that is a bad idea, eat something calorie and nutrition rich like avocados, nuts, peanut butter, cheese, a protein shake, full fat milk.... Gah I'm making myself hungry and I don't have 1200 calories left so I'm gonna stop lol.
