What is the maximum amount of calories you've ever consumed?

Well, I said "ever consumed" however I'm sure we all had days where we ate thousands of calories before joining MFP. But since joining MFP and tracking your calories, what is the most you've been over your calorie goal?

For me, I had a terrible day about a month ago and my goal for the day with exercise was probably 2100 and I ate 3500 calories that day, so I was... 1400 calories over. Oh boy haha. One day doesn't hurt much in the long run though. =)

Not judging, just purely curious and thought it would be fun. I saw a thread about cheat days which triggered this idea. :happy:

Daily Goal was:
And you ate:

    For Breaking Dawn Part 2, a few friends and I attended a all day marathon.So I decided to log it all, but still count it as a cheat day. I consumed over 4,000 calories! My daily goal is 1250....lets just say I had a blast, but I was sick for a couple days afterward from eating so much junk!

    Since I've started logging 3113 is my highest. Before I logged I wouldn't be surprised if I had hit a 10k calorie day.

    3600 I think, but I had a lot of activity that day, so it offset how much I ate. I was just maintaining that day.

    Weight loss calories is 1600 without activity
    Maintenance calories is 2600 without activity

    Hmmmmm I think the highest would have to be around 3000...?
    My cousin was generous and brought me a large baskin robins milkshake.
    Oh boy, did I forget to look that up on MFP. My limit went over by 1600ish.
    I felt so bad- I wanted to cry but....that milkshake was rather good and chocolatey lol

    Christmas Day and Chinese New Year's parties are likely when I eat way too much. I'll have breakfast then Christmas lunch then a second round for dinner. Plus the cakes, desserts, fizzy drinks, alcoholic drinks and crisps. I will log it in detail next time. :devil:

    A few months ago, before I decided to change my life, I attempted to eat a 96oz steak.

    I ate about 85 oz of it..

    never calculated the calories, but its pretty pretty pretty high.

    Lots of lightweights I see. Not exactly sure but I'd peg it at 20,000+, maybe a bit more

    My highest after joining MFP - 2300 something
    Daily goal - ~ 1500
    But i actually consume ~ 1800 after exercise and other activity(fitbit)

    Now that i tracked back, i see only 4-5 days consumed above 2000 calories, which is pretty sad. Need to start with weights and eat more...

    Thanksgiving is madness for anyone watching their calorie intake! So much food and every bit of traditional Thanksgiving food is high in calories. Mashed potatoes, turkey with gravy, pumpkin pie, stuffing. Ha, I didn't even bother counting my calories on Thanksgiving but I can definitely see how you'd hit 8K!

    In one day or one meal?

    Never logged it then, but definitely one of those Korean BBQ/Sushi Buffet places...

    It's hard to say but I'm sure it involved wings, pizza, beer, and a Superbowl !!

    In one day, probably close to 4,000.

    Which is OD within itself.

    my highest intake days are around when my period starts. I feel weak, hungry and exhausted all the time. So end up not excercising on those days and eat a ton of sweets and salty snacks. My highest day on MFP was 2600 or around that.
