Earned extra calories

michelleellis

I was wondering can you bank extra calories you dont eat for another day? Can I save extra calories for the weekend or special occassion?

I don't know about other people, but I tend to use my eaten calories on the weekend for an extra treat or bigger meal. I've found that if I keep my calories consistenly low without splurging once a week, my weight loss slows down. So I usually have some calories left over during the week and I use some of them for "special occasions".

How about other people? What do you do?

I don't really see anything wrong with that. I wil sometimes eat a little less on some days if I know I'm going to eat higher calorie stuff for a special occassion.

my trainer actually advised me to work out my calories on a weekly basis not a daily one - so the ups and downs of a single meal or a treat are more easily accounted for with out going over

Thanks guys

Do anyone else save uneaten calories

No and wouldn't save any, id just let uneaten calories go towards creating a larger deficit so you can lose more weight. If your gonna eat a big meal or junk have light meals for breakfast and lunch and then a big super but stay withing your daily allowance

I wonder would it still equal out the same if you account for weekly caloric intake.
