    4500? **** i probably ate 10 x that last thanksgiving.

    that would be 12.8 pounds of food

    possible I suppose but kind of proves the point of the OP.....that everyone exaggerates

    Not really that hard, thanksgiving is an all day event, not just a meal. 4lbs of PB has about 24000 calories...

    I'm going to workout in the morning. But I'll be over fit sure, I don't care....it's one day. And I'll be lifting hard too, put those extra cals to good use :)

    It's funny...all the comments prove that the AVERAGE truly is most likely 4500 calories. Lol

    Here on a fitness site...quite a few people are saying they don't eat that much. Well...everyone else is eating double. Thus the average.

    I know I didn't get fat on 2000 calories a day...so double that for a holiday....pretty easy.

    Main meal is not the problem,
    dessert has high calorie & too many alchohol.
