So, I broke my leg & had surgery.

I can't put weight on my leg for 8 weeks. Now im I'm stuck in the house. I'm struggling with eating healthy by the afternoon. My sweet tooth kicks in. I'm struggling to stick to 1200 calories a day.


Everyday is a struggle. Any suggestions on healthy sweet snacks??


I don't want to get depressed but know I must watch my calories since I'm stuck at home.

    So sorry to hear about your leg surgery.

    I snack on cheese sticks most of the time, and lately I've been spending a lot of time reading posts on here to take my mind off food, because I work from home with a lot of down time on my hands.
    Plus I like helping friends out when I can.

    Berries. 1/2 cup of blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, is only about 32 calories at the most.

    Does it have to be sweet? Boredom just calls for munchie things for me.
    Air Popped popcorn

    Raw veggies
