Help..New a quick reply

Hey guys..Today was a bad day of eating. Everything was fine until my lunch were i had to eat a sandwich and an apleecuz that waas all I could afford to buy in my school. So for my 2nd snack i hate fruit and dried fruit to up the calories. But then again I eat for dinner soup and a sandwich. My calories summed up only to 1840 and that is counting two portins of Ensure. I dont now what to do... should i add anoher ensure? or just i jus leve it like that? HELP PLEASEEE

uhm i wouldnt suggest adding the ensure...do you like oatmeal?? just make 1/2 cup with 2/3 cup milk and add lots of pb, honey, nuts, and dried fruit?? its really simple to make that high cal...or if you wanna do the ensure to cook the oatmeal in? or an ensure shake/smoothie.  But you dont wanna rely on ensures on most days...but in this case if youre down by alot like you are i assume it would be fine.  But make sure you get your calories higher anyway possible and plan a tad better tomarrow.

I am not sure why you would not suggest an ensure. Inpatient when you don;t finish your calories for the day that is what they do. If you were to miss 1000 calories during the day you would get that in ensure at the end. I understand that it is better to eat real food but sometimes when calories get high or when one misses a lot during the day it is the way to go. I am sorry you had a bad day. Now that you see what happened I hope next time you can preplan better with a pre packed something if finances is an issue. I am wondering though when you knew you did not eat enough for lunch why you had such a small dinner? Today is a new day and I hope it is better
