    The one thing I will say is if you are not hungry don't worry about it. One day that far under is not going to ruin everything. Do *not* eat if you are not hungry. A lot of people are overweight because they eat when they are not hungry. Telling yourself you have to eat even when you are not hungry is not a habit anyone should get into.

    Wow, lots of misinformation here.


    Except for the cheesecake suggestion, of course. Everyone knows cheesecake is delicious.

    Are these exercise calories or base plan calories? If they are exercise calories, go to bed. If they are base plan calories, eat a little protein and plan better tomorrow.

    If you are going to have a really good dessert, tonight would be the night...ahhh, cheesecake...

    Lots of people are here because they are totally out of touch with what their body *needs*. After a hard workout their body needs nourishment, whether they feel hungry or not. While you are learning to properly fuel your body you may have to not eat when you're hungry on occasion - and other times you may have to eat when you're not.

    990 calories? My wife gets 1200 for the whole day!
    Did you not eat or just burn 1000 calories in exercise?

    I know exactly what you need: cheesecake! :wink:

    I am actually serious. I like to hit my macros in my basic daily caloric allowance and then eat what I want with my exercise calories. What fun is working out if I don't get to spend my calories how I want?

    Lol, I love this..haha..I just ate a huge dinner last nite, the nite before, the nite before that..and lost weight..sooo hmmmm...so eat what you can..and try again tomorrow...you absolutely don't want to go to bed starving..that will just keep you awake...or have you tossing and turning all nite..

    I have the same problem. Usually when I come back from the gym at ~8, I have at least 2k calories left and so few hours to eat them. Today I ate 2.5k cal in 4 hours D: Need to buy more frozen pizza and ice cream for easy(er) calories.
