Occasionally. The only concern in it for me is that I only do it out of lack of planning, and if I fail to plan one day, I can easily fail to plan the next and the next and there goes a binge spiral.

Rosinate - I LOVE your quote!!!!

I do it too. As long as the splurge is an actual meal (as opposed to an entire cheesecake) then I typically find I'm not really hungry the rest of the day. I'll just have an apple or a handful of almonds or something as needed.

I do this every day. I'm not really a grazer and usually eat 2-3 times a day. Breakfast and Lunch/ Brunch tend to be really light meals and I save the majority of my calories (about 2/3) for dinner when I have time to sit and savour them. Although now that I think of it, re: what matafleur said, I've had 1 or 2 days when I've splurged on cheesecake or fried chicken in the afternoon and after recording the calorie count, had to go to bed hungry.
