Hi all,

I just wondered if I did not eat all my calories on any given day if I am able to add them to my calories on the next day so I am not going into 'starvation mode' and so my calorie intake then balances out over a full week?

Thank you

    You can use the site any way you want.


    Lots of people use a weekly balance sheet approach.


    You won't go in "starvation mode" by under eating occasionally. It's long-term underfeeding that will hurt you.

    Yes, I always go by the week, it evens out

    And starvation mode is myth, ignore it, or do forum search to find many a discussion

    I think it evens out. A day or two of under eating won't put you into "starvation mode". I think varying your intake can give your metabolism a boost anyway :happy:

    Never try and roll over calories you will be defeating your weight loss goal and for the daily intake it says its better to stay a bit under u wont go in to starvation mode as long as your eatting the right food and keep your water intake in. Feel free to message me any time for more advice :)
