    How do you ladies manage to eat all of your cals without having any more than ten leftover, without going over your cals? I tried today and I think I still have almost 60 leftover.

    I love candy so I'm a big fan of the mini bars. A mini milky way is only 40! It's a nice treat after dinner :)

    As for last night, here's some ideas of what I would've done with 60 cals:
    1 serving of baby carrots (35cals)
    1/2 a cup of skim milk (45cals)
    1/2 of any 100cal bars (50cals)
    1/2 Tbps of PB (50cals)

    But I wasn't hungry at all! lol! I will probably be more hungry on a heavier exercise day, but that's like a catch 22 because then they give you extra calories. I'm still getting used to trying to tweak my cals properly, but i'm getting better slowly...thank you for the suggestions though! They are great ideas and i'll keep them in mind. :happy:
