Watched a video where this guy (Mario Tomic) talked about a "strategic calorie buffer". He eats a smaller breakfast + lunch, and saves up 50% of the calorie budget for dinner because it's easier to make up a deficit than going "oh crap I have 150 cals left".
I like it.

An analogy here probably is to be more mindful of your spending budget during the week when you're solo, because you go out with friends on weekends and have slightly less control over restaurant bills.
