I ate about the same as I do now (about 1300-1700 on weekdays, 2000-2500 on weekends). But I had become much too sedentary.

Like others have said, I really have no idea. But if I had to guess I would say somewhere between 3000 - 4000. I could easily tackle a large pizza all by myself. I feel pretty confident that I'll never return to that lifestyle. I'm focused on reaching my goal (about half way there) and then maintaining.

It varied widely.

Biggest days were probably 3000-5000 cal, most days were probably 2000-3000 cal

I eat the roughly same amount now that I used to. The difference: I no longer drink 1-2 two liter bottles of soda and I move more. I have cut back on a few things that I realized I was underestimating the calories on (like pasta. I didn't realize I was eating two servings of pasta at a time) but it's mostly the same.
