Well she is also drinking a lot of water - more than she ever has (I know cause she's a peep of mine.) And I know that does fill us girls up. Yeah, 990 cals. is not enough to sustain us if we are working out and all that. But, if you can't eat more - why force yourself? If you bulk up on fibrous foods it is quite possible that you will be feeling more full. There is a lot of information out there that says just as much.

She may also find out that she is hungrier later in the evening - since I know her work schedule and for 1/2 of the week she is working and staying up much later than the other 1/2 of the week.

I know that sometimes I go to bed w/o eating the recommended cals for weight loss and until I actually lie down, I don't realize how hungry my body is.

She may need to also start working out with weights - it will make her want to eat more.
