Hitting Calorie Goals

I find that on days when I go to the gym, I have no problem hitting my minimum calorie goal food wise, which is understandable because you body demands more fuel. However, I find on days where I don't go, I have a really hard time hitting 1000 calories, never-mind my 1400-a-day goal. Does anyone else have this issue and have any suggestions on combating it? I find it hard to eat food when I don't actually feel hungry, and I only ever drink water after completely succeeding in cutting out fruit juices, fizzy drinks and alcohol.

    Beans are high in protien and fiber and are calorie dense. almonds and rice maybe?

    I don't really incorporate rice into my diet, come to think of it, I'll definitely give that a go, I always get full quite quickly with it though! ^_^
