I have a little over 1000 left for the day and I am not very hungry at all. I have digestive/intestional issues so some days I really just don't get hungry at all due to symptoms. What can I do to kill most of those calories?

    I must add I am not even the slightest bit hungry and my current symptom is I am bloated to the point of where it hurts to even drink water.

    Arbonne Chocolate protein shake in the blender with banana and peanut butter! Really yummy!! And the Arbonne shakes are really good. Let me know if you want to try some, and I can order them for you! Good Luck!

    If you are not hungry at all, don't eat them. Tomorrow try to ration better. I am one who eats most of my exercise calories, but it's certainly not going to hurt you to let the calories go this time. I would hate to force it if I was feeling bloated already!

    I actually go under my calories some days and over other days. I've lost 11 pounds this month alone and know I'm netting a minimum of 1200 calories a day. I think the ups and downs (nothing drastic) are keeping my body on it's toes!

    If you did this a lot, I certainly wouldn't recommend it. (I feel like someone is going to come down on me for this response so I'm trying to cover my butt :-)

    If you are trying to lose maybe you shouldn't force it. Maybe later you will be hungry for something light, until than I wouldn't eat if you just not hungry and even bloated feeling....That's just what I would do anyway ...Just listen to your body on that one.
    Than again though you might feel better if you ate something, maybe you are bloated from something you ate earlier.

    Oh and I should add that if you truly want to eat your calories, then I'm sorry I didn't actually answer your question!! Nuts (cashews are my personal favorite) pack a lot of calories in a little package, with lots of protein!
