    My body would go into shock and I'd probably die if I attempted to eat that many calories. :sick:

    given her previous post history, she has an unhealthy relationship with food and readily acknowledges that she carb binges (eating a box of cereal at a time mindlessly) and does crazy amounts of cardio to not gain weight. not sure how a 5000 cal day is gonna help things.

    I LOVE IT, SOMEBODY WHO DID HER RESEARCH. I STAND BY MY "EATING DISORDER" COMMENT 1000% NOW!!!

    AND TO YOUR FAN CLUB, rtalencar85,
    ... SUX TO BE RIGHT!

    ::raises eyebrow:: So you are going with: "Na na in your face!" Immature much? What are you, 5? I thought I was supposed to be the one with the cubby...

    Even though you are not her psychologist and have no medical backing to your accusations, you still assume you are right. He didn't say he was right, he was merely saying eating disorder was not the only answer.

    Even if she does have some sort of eating disorder, you think calling her DISGUSTING for eating those calories is going to help matters? Oh yes, eating all those calories is DISGUSTING and I'm totally judging you, that'll help.

    If you truly thought the OP had an eating disorder, then you could have written a supportive post regarding the need to seek medical attention instead of judging and calling her DISGUSTING. If she did have an eating disorder, that would just feed into her warped perceptions about feeling guilty about eating. Great approach there.

    OR maybe she is recovering from her previous warped thoughts about food and decided to try a high cal plan with a certain workout regimen. However, by calling her DISGUSTING you just caused her to relapse back into thinking it is bad to eat. Way to go.

    Lots of scenarios here. Either way, your comments aren't helpful. So just go away like you originally said you were going to posts ago, OR kindly support the OP into getting help if you honestly think she is troubled. Pick one.
    I called the whole large pizza, cinnamon bread, buffalo wings .... MEAL plan "disgusting." Go reread b4 you start your $h!t!
    And while you are REREADING, notice in the SAME comment I merely said "hmmm, maybe I am leaning towards a 'binge/eating disorder' because someone said it before me. In fact lots of someone's said it before me. I agreed to comments that had already been made.

    You wanna go all day all night? You won't "WIN" anything. Be careful what you say, you may be eating them words later. ;)

    It does not matter if you called other people disgusting for eating 5,000 cals/certain meals, or the OP. If she truly has an eating disorder as you think, she could internalize that. All she will see is people talking about those cals, or those foods, or that meal choice, as DISGUSTING. So I stand by the fact that I think your comments were not being helpful to the OP, if she in fact does have an eating disorder.

    Even if she doesn't have an eating disorder, those comments were still rude. Period.

    Oh and so it is okay for you to say the OP has an eating disorder because "other people said it first"? You really are 5.


    I DIDN'T CALL A PERSON DISGUSTING. GET IT STRAIGHT! I CALLED A MEAL DISGUSTING.
    BYE BYE -
    YOU ARE SO ANNOYING!
    LATER!

    Still rude and judgmental.

    You were supposed to have gone bye bye a long time ago. When are you going to fulfill that promise?

    I took a look at the OP's diary and just about went into a diabetic coma from the sugar content.

    I am more concerned about this than about the calorie goal. All that sugar day after day after day CAN'T be good for a person.

    The UK GDA is 90g so it's not that much over that, really.

    The USA GDA is 6 tsp for women, 9 tsp for men. 6 x 4.2 = 25.2 g. Not sure why the UK is so much higher. There are 4.2 grams of sugar in one teaspoon. Therefore, 100 g of sugar is equivalent to eating approximately 50 teaspoons. Yeah, I find that horrifying.

    For me that's binge behavior and I've worked very hard to avoid binge behavior. So I would not plan a day that looked like that.

    However, not judging your plan. So going along with the idea, I'd definitely include waffles with real butter and syrup for breakfast, somewhere in there would have to be some chili cheese fries, and cupcakes. Definitely some cupcakes in there! LOL

    If you can do a 5000 calorie cheat day in a way that's healthy and not binge behavior, enjoy!

    Not sure if feeling jealous or just extremely hungry...nope, jealous. Definitely jealous.


    That said I'm planning a huge cheat day either this weekend or next. Funnel cake with strawberries, vanilla ice cream, and whipped cream. Corndog dipped in cheese and potato patch fries with beef gravy. Hand dipped cookies and cream sundae, at least two scoops. Probably a gyro and perhaps a second funnel cake, with just powdered sugar to keep it light.

    And water. :drinker: gotta stay hydrated as I run around the amusement park.

    I wonder if the people so vocally judging OP's question are the same ones who whine about other people being (in their opinions) judgmental in other threads.

    I suspect this is similar to the "THERE SHALL BE NO BODY SHAMING OF ANY KIND AT ANY TIME!***"



    (***unless that body type is lean and muscly...in that case, ewww gross...)

  • Besides, if you're here to lose weight, then I'm pretty sure you've eaten over 5000 calories in a day at least a few times in your life.

    This statement is not true for everyone.

    Stating that I couldn't eat that much in one day is not an insult to the OP. It is just a fact and I wouldn't know how to tell someone how to eat that many calories in one day.

    I know better. I've seen too many people on MFP and IRL making claims about how little they eat and doing a laughable job at counting calories. I'm not here to argue, but I am very amused at the level of denial I'm seeing in this thread.

    QFT!

    This day alone is why they can't do a 5k cheat day. It's NOT a reffed people. Besides a refeed is not a 'just eat anything' it's got to be planned to basically be hi carb. You are all suggesting nothing but pure sugar, salt & fat.

    If anything those suggesting that she go along with it & those suggesting the crap she eat are just as bad as the one thinking a cheat day is needed. There is no way on earth she has enough calorie credit to eat 5000cals in a day.

    I'm wondering who are the real eating disorder ones here..... the OP or those who think it's more than ok to pump your body with 5k worth of fat, sugar & salt & then still be ok with it.
