I have 1000 calories left over from yesterday (I went to take a nap at 5 and ended up sleeping the whole night through so I didn't have dinner or snacks) which means I have 2700 calories today. And dang right I'm gonna use most of them. What would y'all do with that many calories??

All the peanut butter and raisin bread.
Each slice is ~210 calories.
After 5 of them you'll have eaten back your 1000.
Problem with me is I'm unstoppable when it comes to those and can probably eat 7-8 before I realize it's time to stop.3 -
You don’t have to eat all 2700 calories today. You could spread it out over the week.3

I'd get whatever it was I'd been craving that was too high in calories to fit into my normal meals/days - at the moment, that would mean me getting pizza1

Personally I wouldn't have that mindset to begin with, that you have to eat more calories the next day. I wouldn't want to get into the habit of thinking I've got to eat that amount of calories even if I'm not hungry, or what shall I eat that I don't normally eat, as I already eat what I want to. I 'd just be happy with a big deficit for that day and eat my normal calories the next.11

I don't think I have to eat them. I already eat what I normally would like to. But being real, a lot of stuff doesn't make sense to fit into my normal daily calorie allowance. I would never eat a typical restaurant meal during the everyday because it makes more sense to use all those calories for more food that I like at home. But today I have accidentally acquired an extra 1000 calories to eat the things I typically see as a waste of my calories. No, I can't normally fit in a snack cake AND taco bell into my calories, but today I can do both instead of just choosing one. I never have a problem staying under my calories so I don't feel the need to spread them out over the week. I feel that I would enjoy using them all at once5 -
High protein corn chips with guacamole ... mmm, if I had all the calories in the world, this is my weakness. Imagine not having to count out 10 (or 11) measly corn chips!1

if i was hungry, id eat what i wanted. if i WASNT, i wouldnt eat anything extra.1

I'd go get a big old white bread roll and have an egg salad sandwich with bacon on it and some chips, eat normal rest of the day and roll over whatever cals were left over.1
