Working hard to eat ENOUGH calories

Man - I have to labor over getting enough calories.  At 1200 I'm just not hungry.  Getting lots of nutrition, maybe it's that?  But, with at least 300 cals burned in exercise everyday, I hear that I'm not doing myself any favors.  So to get up above 1500 is hard work!!  I'm adding things I would not normally.  I eat so many veggies - those nutrients - and they're filling me up!  I want to lose, but I hate feeling so full.  Nor do I want to go into 'starvation'.  Can't win!!  ??

Nuts and dried fruit are great to fill in those calories. Peanut butter too. They also have good fats in them. Hope this helps

What are your stats and how big is your deficit?  It may not be necessary for you to try to eat back your exercise calories.  The 1200 recommendation is to make sure you are eating enough to get your vitamin and mineral requirements.  As long as your exercise doesn't put you at too large a deficit, 1200 could be ok ...
