I agree that planning makes sense, but my question is does it really work that way, and if so, what are the parameters. For example, if we extrapolate that to a monthly splurge, does it mean I could eat 1900 cal per day and then have 4900 cal on the 30th day. That sounds like a bad idea. There is no doubt we are programmed for a 24 hour rhythm, but I'm not sure about longer periods.
