do cals average out

for example: say the last 3-4 days i've been under, by a largish amount, then bam, today, too much, by probably not that much, but still over...

will they average out?

    Yup, I work on a weekly average rather than a daily, with weekdays lower and significantly higher on weekends. Works for me!

    I have heard on MFP, calories cannot tell time.... also in reports you can view your nutrition and calories in a weekly format... it will tell you if you are over or under for the week in a bar graph. (this is on my android phone, not sure about any other device)
