    Dont do stuff thats too hard to stick to then.

    Save some calories for an evening snack, check you're getting adequate fat and protein to keep you full?

    You can eat whenever you want. And it's normal to be hungry between meals. If you eat healthy, you won't starve. A healthy diet is balanced and varied. Are you getting enough calories, and do you track macros?
