    I have always worked my calories on a weekly basis and save up during the week so I can enjoy a few treats at the weekend. Tomorrow I'll have an extra 514 calories to spend. It works for me. That way you can enjoy your occasions out, you're just planning ahead.

    That 's a good idea.
    I have not thought of doing it that way.

    I guess you can say I "bank" calories. But I don't do it with the intention of using them say at the end of the week to have cake or whatever. First, I don't see the point in eating the calories earned by exercise UNLESS you are hungry. If you're not hungry... then BONUS! If you are hungry, eat something healthy.

    I eat within my calories everyday and always try to stay under my goal. If I go over one day, I don't fret because I know that I have had days upon days that I was under. Like other members have said. It all averages out in the end.

    :-) Happy tracking!
