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

    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?

    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...)

    I'm coming over for lunch. After that I suppose I'll have to figure out what to have for dinner and dessert today.

    Thanks for adding some humor, delicious photos and perspective to this thread.

  • 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!

    In all seriousness, if it were me, I'd hit up a Brazilian steakhouse like Fogo De Chao and enjoy all my favorite meats.

    Ditto!

    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.
