So I ate dinner and I'm just stuffed (all that curry will do that) but I already prelogged my usual 3 cookies and ice cream for dessert! Should I just woman up and eat them? They are a part of balanced diet after all.

Or maybe I should just not eat them? But then I'll be just under 1400 calories a day, a far cry from the 2000 I usually take in. What if I go into starvation mode and get fat? Or die?!

    I don't think this addresses my very relevant concerns

    I wish I was hungry. Leaving calories on the table just seems like a bad idea.

    I'm gonna have to go with the tough love approach and tell them that they already fit into your macros so you'd better just eat them. You def. don't want to encourage starvation mode and you def. don't want to die. You can do it. You totally have this. Just one spoonful at a time and before you know it, that bowl of ice cream will be demolished.

    Good luck on your journey. You've got this.

    I usually just eat more the next day to make up for it.

    This is true, they do fit my macros. Without dessert I'll be 1 gram under on my protein.

    On the other hand, extra cookies tomorrow could be cool. Unless I wake up dead

    Yeah, probably. Husband is more of a sugar cookie guy so he'd part with the chocolate chip pretty easily.

    Or fat. I think I'd eat the cookies, just to avoid gaining weight overnight from not eating enough.

    A very good point. If I've learned nothing else on the forums I've learned that starvation mode is serious business and should be taken seriously and literally in the exact manner most people explain it.

    Which means if I don't eat these cookies I'll stall out. Because my body is on a 24 hour clock and once midnight hits it is over! Bam starvation mode!
