What is the highest calorie total you've ever seen on MFP?

cherdan

And what's your own personal "best?"
Wonder if this were ever a thread before.
This just popped into my head while being enthralled by this guy's (but of course) diary. Every day was just this big orgy of goodness.. Butterfinger milkshakes, cheese, cheese, cheese, moonpies, pound cakes, mac and cheese, vodka, pizza, fries, ice cream. One day was about 5,000 calories. Balls.

I think my highest was 2,200.. and I wanted to throw myself off a high bridge.

I can't even begin to fathom how much I used to eat as an obese kid/obese teenager/obese adult. Quite scary to contemplate.

I had a day that was right around 4,500 calories haha

I'm pretty sure that once I've decided to "go all out" with eating, I don't track. lol. It doesn't happen super often but on holidays or race days, I usually just don't bother... probably bad but I haven't had a problem with it yet

When I first started, I had a day that was over 3000, it was mostly wine and pizza!

WalkingZero1

My highest was like 1700, and that was a difficult day for me lol

hottottie11

I've seen upwards of 4000+ cals....as for myself...it's been 3500 (Thanksgiving). I regular log about 1900-2200 (and I'm not on maintenance)

Butterfinger milkshakes, cheese, cheese, cheese, moonpies, pound cakes, mac and cheese, vodka, pizza, fries, ice cream.

That sounds disgusting to me. I like some of those things but I'd be sick if I ate them all in one day.

I don't usually look at others' diaries so the highest I've seen would be mine, which was right around 3000. But my highest days are usually days I eat somewhere other than at home and I often don't log those days because I don't know exactly what was in the dishes.

sexygenius

I had one day total 5000... chinese buffet, and late night binge...

You are amazing! I think your highest has got to be many peoples' lowest!! (:

MrsSpinks

Mine was 2500 on a day we went cinema and of course I had to have popcorn AND peanut M&M's (whole share bag to myself)! I did lots of exercise that day though, so luckily, my net was about 1800! We'll see what Christmas day brings though!!!

Tujitsu56

I think I have a 5,000+ day in there somewhere. Haha, I've definitely gone all out a couple times. I just think it's most important to quickly right the ship.

uLinx

Around 2300 was my worst, I think. I was mostly wine.

wendyannie1976

in really bad days long past i once had just one meal of 10,000 cals none stayed with me though

Woooooow!

SueGeer

My highest was 2594.........could have been more - I estimated some of it............just had a massive munchie attack that day. Maintaining now on 1510 a day.............if i eat more, I exercise more to counteract it. I don't often go over these days; although I will make an exception for Christmas & New Year...not logging food on those days.

Elle_Jamaicangirl81

2000+ AND i had exercised that day... so that was probably in the 3000's

TGIF food + drinks + brownies ... was my sister's bday. GREAT day... but all i saw was RED when i completed my diary


EDIT
ahh, i found it... 3300 without exercise. :indifferent:

PattyTheUndefeated

I've had days where I've topped 6000+ calories. I'm a recovering binge/food addict so I've had some pretty bad, bad, BAD days...

But on any average day, I'll log between 1200 to 2000 calories tops depending on how active I've been that day and my hunger levels...



I LOVE FOOD. EAT.

dullpiggy

im ashamed to admit i did 8500 on thanksgiving. i was shocked that it got that high. i know i didnt eat very well (not really trying to follow my allowed calories), but i definitely did not eat all i could have... and it makes me wonder how much my family ate that day.

I'm the exact same way. I know that if I record it, I'll be hard on myself the next day haha
I'm pretty sure I've done 4,000 - 5,000 before

:noway: wowsa

crux

4,653 this past Saturday. There was some beer in there, but mostly it was OK food too!

lol, I still was in deficit by the end of the day.

Way to throw this guy out there.... I've done 4000 before. I was bulking, but that was mostly wine.

MochaMixAZ

So, just for fun - I put in what I used to eat on a daily basis.... I consumed an average of 6,500 calories a day to maintain my weight at over 500 pounds. Did that for over ten years...

Thankfully, I don't see anything close to those numbers very often... but once in awhile I can get close, like with Thanksgiving or if I am traveling and eat 2 meals out at restaurants.

mhm that week I didn't gain at all. oh yeah.

jtblack1414

On bad days i'll have a large pizza 2 L coke and order of bread sticks. Thats usually just the beginning. So by the end of the day 7,000 cals +.
Its always worth it, never regret. Pizza is my kryptonite. Usually do this once a month.

catshark209

I've seen people with a goal of 3000. I haven't been over 2600 since I started here. I try and eat 2200-2300 though.
In my old days I'd eat easy 5000-6000. Think McDonalds Large fries every other day, a six pack a Coke a day, Hot Fries, candy bars, and like a half cup of sugar in my coffee. Oh with half and half.

Rae6503

I was over 4000 twice last week. 2200 is my maintenance.

sarad777

That's awesome 5000 calories. LOL I could do that. I love food. However, my highest days are 2200 to 2300 calories.

HeidiMightyRawr

My highest was probably around 4000-4500, the highest I've seen elsewhere was around that too.

Barneystinson

There are people bulking and performing at pretty high athletic levels on here, so it's not very surprising to see 3000+ logs now and again.
