Hi, I am new here... and I have seen many posts that say if you don't eat all of your calories for one day you can eat extra the next day...is this true? I thought each day started over...??

    That's known as zig zagging calories. Where you eat less than the amount one day, and more than the amount the next. As long as at the end of your 7 day cycle you end up with the same amount of calories, or less. Than it's fine.

    That being said. As far as I can tell myfitness pal won't do that automatically..but you can always add those calories in as a form of food or a cardio work out. As long as you are tracking yourself.
