Left overs

Hi guys

A question for you ... If you have leftovers from a meal that you won't eat the same day (for me today 1 sausage and 1/4 frittata) do you adjust today's calories and add on to tomorrow, or leave as is and eat tomorrow and not count? Or does it matter? Oh and not eating all left me under calories today. I hope that makes sense! Thank you x

    Log it when you eat it. Keeps you honest and lets you see the true nutrients that you're getting.

    Agree with Booboo. Reduce today's and don't add the leftovers until you eat them.

    Thank you! I kind of thought that would be the right approach. Have to admit its a rare thing for me not to finish my meals!
