"Carry Over" Leftovers?

So last night I went to Red Lobster with my family and I didn't eat all of my food. The soup I'm easily able to say I ate half of last night and half of today, but the main course was not so evenly divided. It was a lobster tail, shrimp scampi and some other shrimp with rice pilaf. I still have most of the shrimp scampi and all of the rice. If those are accounted for already in my calories for yesterday (and I didn't go over my goal), do I need to try and figure out how to log them with today's food? Or is it basically right to think that if I don't go over yesterday OR today (only counting the shrimp and rice for yesterday) it'll pretty much average itself out?

  • If it fit in yesterday's goal but you didn't finish it you can still eat it today. Daily deficit isn't very important, your weekly deficit will still be the same anyway.
