Varying daily calorie intake

I'm interested to know if any MFP members vary their daily total but ensure the weekly total's still 7 x daily cals.
I have days when I'm not so hungry & others when I'm out for a meal so I'm thinking about varying daily cals instead of sticking rigidly to 1200. Is there an easy way to do this? We eat out 1-2 times a week & although I make sensible choices, if the menu doesn't detail the calories I feel a little bit panicky.

    I asked MFP amp to give me the restaurants menu. Then I can look over the menu and decide what I want to eat it gives you calories and nutrition information

    Although I log my cals daily on MFP I prefer to look at them over a week and as long as I don't exceed 10k a week I'm happy.

    I'm 5ft1.5 with sedentary job. I started off 3 weeks ago 148lb, now 146lb. Daily allowance 1200 cals. Today I'll have used 800 cals after having all planned meals.
