  • What do you mean no sugar or protein left? What are your macros set as? Chances are, you can eat more of those things unless you have an underlying problem.

    Without seeing your diary, I can suggest veggies, a slice of whole grain bread with peanut butter or something?

    Eat a large salad.

    I wouldn't worry about going over a bit on protein, the MFP settings are a minimum really.

    Have a ham sandwich, or a slice of toast with some cheese.

    I agree-where are your macros set and also, without seeing your diary, it's tough to say. There are a lot of things you could eat for 450 calories depending on what you want; a salad, baked potatoe, chicken, veggies, ect

    If you go over on anything make it protein. If you are exercising you definitely don't want to limit your lean protein.

    Just eat more protein, chances are you could use more anyway. I personally consider those more of guidelines than anything else, especially when losing as much weight as I'm trying to.

    How much protein are you eating? You can go over with protein and it won't hurt you. have greek yogart with fruit or peanut butter with a banana or an apple with cinnamon.
