Plan a night out without wrecking your week Free
Set your daily calories, tell it what's coming up, and it spreads the cost across the rest of the week — so the night out is accounted for before you get there.
This is the free half. The full version logs each day, scores your week and tracks the trend — see what it actually looks like.
This isn't a calorie counter. It's the other half of the problem — what to do when the week has a wedding, a holiday or somebody's birthday in it, and the usual advice is to just say no.
Thirty seconds, no signup. Skip it if you already know your number.
Be honest about the activity line rather than aspirational — most people are a notch lower than they think, and that one choice moves the answer more than anything else here. Sex is in there because the equation needs it: men and women burn differently at rest.
Put the event in before it happens. The ordinary days move to pay for it.
Estimate the event generously. A big night out is easily 1,500–2,500 once drinks are counted — use the drinks calculator if you're not sure.
The weeks that go wrong aren't the normal ones — they're the ones with a wedding, a holiday or a birthday in them. I'm writing a short guide for each. Leave your email and I'll send them as they land.
Free, always. One email per guide, nothing else.
Alcohol is where most nights out quietly go wrong — not the meal. Add what you're realistically planning to drink, then put the total against a day in the week planner.
The planner above is the free half — it works out the week and then forgets it. The paid version logs each day, scores the week, and watches the trend. Below is a real week from it, filled in, so you can see what you'd actually be looking at. These are sample numbers, not yours.
Also in the full version: Today for logging food, protein, steps, training and weight in about fifteen seconds a day · Progress, which reads your last 28 days and tells you what they mean rather than just drawing them · a night out protocol for what to eat before and after · restaurant ordering by cuisine · and a holiday protocol for the weeks that usually undo everything.
Leave your email and I'll send you the occasion guides as they're written — the wedding one first, then Christmas party season, stag and hen weekends, and work travel. Free whether you ever buy anything or not.
One email when there's a new guide, nothing else. Unsubscribe in one click.
Your weeks, weights and drinks stay in this browser and are never sent anywhere. If you give us an email address it is used only to send you the guides, and nothing else. Leeway is a planning tool, not medical or dietary advice. Calorie figures for drinks are typical estimates and vary by measure, brand and venue. It isn't suitable if you have, or have had, an eating disorder or a disordered relationship with food. If you're unsure what a safe calorie target is for you, speak to a GP or registered dietitian first. Never use this to justify eating below your floor.
