    People handle this different ways. Yes, you can eat the calories in that day.
    I am working at night. I figure that my day is over when I go to sleep and starts when I wake up. So no going by clocks for me.
    Some people look at their calories averaged out over the week -- so one day they might go over by 200 calories and the next day go under by 200.

    This is how I handle it. A few over one day a few under the next but it all averages out through the week.
