I get stuck at evening snack when I have calories left but funny macros...
for example...
Tonight I have 300 cals left - 20g of fat but only 8 carbs...

SO what is a snack that is higher in fat, lower in carbs....

Ideas???

    Cheese? About 100 cals per 25g I believe. Low in carbs but higher in fat. Or perhaps some sort of nuts?

    I usually reach for nuts at that point. I don't mind if my protein goes over a bit.

    I like a small bowl of cereal and milk I don't worry too much about the macros so much. I eat something that will help me sleep

    I personally wouldn't do a whole lot of hand wringing over that and I would have whatever I wanted to have because it really makes no difference.

    You must have some protein left too because 20g of fat and 9g of carbs is only 212 calories.
