    If you know you are going to exercise later, eat more, earlier... :)

    Are you lactose intolerant? Whole milk is a great way to get extra calories in.

    Eat foods with greater calorie density.

    If it's a one time thing and you don't want to eat more, don't.

    If it's something that happens regularly, my answer will fall under your list of "don'ts."

    You only ate a total of 643 calories today before exercise?

    This. and what kinds of foods did you eat? (I just saw someone post this, but I second it also)

    Rather than low calorie foods with a lot of volume, eat high calorie foods with lower volume. Normally the opposite of trying to lose weight, but since you are feeling bloated on <700 cals that is an idea.

    Can you drink a protein shake of some sort to help out? Like others suggested some nuts, peanut butter or almond butter (Even better) to boost those good fats, some whole grains or oats..... :)

    either exercise earlier in the day, or eat more during the day even if it puts you in the red until you add your exercise. i had to start doing that when i started walking more and doing 30ds - id end up with 700-1100 calorie burn days and had stayed in the green all day then exercised at night and had to worry about trying to stuff myself even if i wasnt hungry. also eating too close to bedtime makes it hard for me to sleep, so id not eat because of that sometimes.

    This works on so many levels. It could be a dietary suggestion, or an insult.

    Plan ahead. Think about healthy foods that you like and find easy to eat and enter all your meals/snacks for tomorrow - breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks so you meet your net calorie goal.

    Then, don't stop to think if you are hungry or not, just eat the meal you have planned. If you break the day up into little meals than you don't have to feel like you are stuffing yourself each time.

    You know that you aren't doing your body any favours by eating so little - not that its going to be a problem for one day but in the long term you just won't have enough energy to keep going and stay healthy.

    Although I don't have this big of a deficit, I find that if I do a big workout later in the day rather than in the morning I'm not usually as hungry at dinner. However, if you are anything like me you will wake up HUNGRY for breakfast. Next time just plan to have a higher calorie breakfast, and lunch. You definately don't want to make this a habbit because your body will start to eat your muscle instead of your fat and then you'll just be a flabby beanpole. :) Good Luck!

    The OP requested no one be rude. I am sure it wasn't meant as an insult..

    rather eating 643 calories all at once, (which probably would make me feel bloated too!), I suggest eating 200-250 for breakfast, 150-200 for a snack between breakfast & lunch, 250-300 for lunch, another snack, and then 300-400 for dinner. That will get you at least 1200. Smaller meals more frequently will not only not make you feel bloated, but would probably help boost your metabolism. Good luck!

    my opinion: then dont eat. dont make a habit of it. you will prolly over eat tomorrow tho.

    Honestly, I have the same problem. The less I eat the better I feel, if I force myself to eat, I feel bloated and miserable. I wish I had the answer as well! My cals range from 800 to 1200, with 1200 my cal goal. When I eat 800, I feel like a million bucks!

    i didnt take it as one. i made a nice long list of rules because so many people get attacked for ED's when the ask innocent questions like this that i wanted it to be very clear that i did nto want this locked because people could not behave themselves.

    I know on days when I'm just not feeling hungry or still have a pretty huge ways to go to hit my calories, I fill it in with a Protein shake made with milk. healthy and eats up some calories, but I don't feel blah after wards.

    You're making this way harder than you need to. Don't worry about one day, it's nothing. Look up nutrient dense foods and add some if you'd like to eat more. I eat loads of full fat nutrient dense food, if you'd like look at my food diary for ideas. I do eat a lot of sweets though, and I'm lazy at looking up the exact item I've eaten...

    You'll be fine. :smile:

    i have never had a protein shake in my life and wouldnt know where to start if i wanted one.

    I make this when I know I am going to be way under for the day:

    Chocolate protein powder (Jillian Michaels - i get it at walmart) 1 scoop
    Fat Free/low fat Plain yogurt - 8oz
    Organic peanut butter - 2 tblsp
    small banana
    add water to desired thickness

    450cals - I usually use it as a meal replacement after workouts.
