    It means that if you multiply your daily goal by seven, then subtract all the calories you ate over the past week, there's a difference of 3674.

    In other words, you're undershooting your daily calorie goal and it adds up over the week.

    it depends on how low your average daily is. What's your deficit set to? And what do you usually eat at? Ex, my deficit is 1380, I frequently eat at 1200-1250.

    In that case, your extra 3600 is just another pound of loss more or less.
