i was wondering if it would make any difference if you added up over the week and ate them that way instead of daily cals

    Depends really. Starve 6 days and binge 7th day?

    Usually I go maybe 100 cals under one day then 100 over the next or what not. As long as it evens out over the week I do not mind, neither will your body. Things don't reset at midnight.

    If I'm having one night out I eat whatever I want but watch portions. If I go a bit over net cals it's no big deal that an extra 40 minutes of cardio can't handle.

    PS. I hardly ever eat out.

    I do my best on a daily basis, but add up my weekly cals to and work out my average daily usage, that helps lol xx

    This strategy works well for me.
