Question for those who use a body bugg

So I have been using the body bugg for a few months now and wear it all day. I work at a preschool and we have the luxury of being able to take the children out for walks on nature trails and around the main school so I get a pretty good burn during the day. That is in addition to the crazy running around I do just in general as a teacher! lol. There are some days I come home and I am already at 2000 calories burned. But if the weather is bad or we don't do much during the day I might only be at 1600 ish. When I get home from work I do my workouts (Turbo Fire/CLX) and burn about 500 calories more. So some days I reach about 3000 calories burned. Some days I do not though. The weekends are a totally different story because I am not as active.

So I have myself set to Active and burning about 2100 ish calories a day. Some days I hit this without my workout included and some days I don't. I don't really feel like changing my activity level everyday to make up for calories so I was wondering if anyone ever just takes the difference (Body Bugg calorie burn-Calories given+exercise calories) and adds it as a lump sum to their log. I am just worried that I am not eating enough. Lately I have been eating around 2000 but with a 3000 burn that is a big difference and I think it is causing me to binge more often! No good!

I hope this wasn't too long to read and thanks for your help!
