    My max over was 2000 or so. A few times won't hurt you too much, but just make sure you don't make it a habit.

    Christmas Day was 1,554 over - and that's more than I get to start with! But it was one time a year - I'm normally under or a few hundred over on a splurge day.

    Dunno if this counts but before I was counting calories I would estimate that I frequently ate over 6000 in a day - that would be 4000 over my current allowance. I didn't do any exercise then either!

    HAHA... well I was about double my daily "allowance" this past weekend. I ate 2200 calories and my daily is 1530. I did burn 3000 calories hiking for 5 hours, so I needed it : D

    The most I'd say was probably around 6 - 8K above goal. It was calculated to be generated that high.

    Definitely got the math wrong there. lol

    My highest day since starting MFP was about 3600 if my logging was accurate. It was an unplanned pizza-for-dinner night.

    I don't know and I don't want to know. Couple of Saturdays ago, I ate 2 pieces of large fried chicken, french fries, texas toast and a salad with ranch dressing. Oh, washed it down with a large schooner of Dos XX. It was worth it.

    I can't even remember the last time I exceeded my calorie allowance. But I think it was by 26. I am pretty dedicated when I set my mind to something.
