    Something low in bad fats, but don't worry, and if not hungry I won't bother, I listen to my body...

    I agree with peanut butter, High in cals and really good for you too.

    I'm with the majority. 3 tbsp of peanut butter is around 330 calories, plus your body doesnt store the fats in peanut butter like it does with other fatty foods, nuts are always a safe option and packed with protein. Cant go wrong with that.

    A bowl of cereal! Get something that has lots of nuts in it, too.

    you are supposed to hit your calorie goal for the day, because losing around 2 lbs a week is what is considered in many circles as "safe weight loss." if you exercised today also, you are supposed to get about 1200 NET calories, not 1200 calories consumed total before exercise is factored in.

    if it says you have 934 calories left, you should aim to get near that.

    I'm on day 12 and today is the first time I've had 25 calories left. But I feel full and am not hungry so i'm not gonna worry about it.

    I was quite low on calories yesterday evening, so I had a beer! It was sooo good, I haven't had a whole beer to myself for a few months, I have the odd mouthfulls of my husbands, but this one was all mine. And as I'm a total booze light weight now (and loving it) I even felt a little bit tipsy. Worth every one of those 150 calories!!

    Pizza! LOL
    I am one of those that just counts calories - purely calories in and calories out. I had pizza tonight and two chicken sandwiches. Yum.

    @mkennedym if getting 1200 Net is the goal then I am so not eating enough food. yesterday mine was at 779 and food 1143....But i wasn't hungry and didn't want to be eating anything else that late at night...The only time i get 1200 and over is when i don't work out....So are you saying I should be eating more food???? UGH i'm doing so good now with no being consumed with eating....
