    As others have said, your weekly average is probably right in a good range if you really are eating around 4000 calories on that one day.

    I've always had more success working on a weekly average vs a daily limit. If I have to eat 1500 calories every day, sometimes I just eat things to make the goal and other times I feel deprived. With trying to hit a weekly average of 1450-1550, I can eat what I want and arrange my meals in a way that works better for my life.
