Since the beginning of April I've been using my fitness pal and have been given the grand total of 1200 calories a day. Every day I've been within 10 calories either side of this goal.
Until this weekend - when BBQ with wine was calling me.
On Sunday I was 1000 calories over, not beating myself up over it but has got me wondering the best way to deal with a bad day.
The things I'm thinking
- Reduce calories for the 6 days beforehand so have calories in the bank (not convinced calories work like this but readily admit I have no knowledge of how they do work)
- Reduce calories for the 6 days after so weekly average is back to the correct amount (see above comment re does this work)
- Reduce calories for the 2 days before to a detox level
- Reduce calories for the 2 days after to a detox level
- Don't change anything put it down to one bad day and stick to normal level of calories
Or is there 6) alternative suggestion
Any advice?
