    As long as you are eating enough high nutrient food to meet your needs, there is no reason not to spend your remaining calories any way you want to. I think eating sweets on special occasions only can be helpful for people who have really low calorie allowances, or people who don't track, and just want to find ways to decrease calories without counting, but if you are tracking, and you have the room, go for it.

    A lot of the diet "rules" are just simple ways to cut down on calorie consumption. If you are tracking and you know you are eating at a deficit, they don't really apply.

    Now I'm wondering what the average goal is for most people on here! Apparently I'm set for 1300 calories, not a lot, even with my bonus 300 calories for exercising, haha
