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.
Do you need calorie credit for cheat days? That wouldn't really be cheating then, would it?
OP seems to be trying to gain weight, according to her ticker, so if she wants to take a day to up her calories by a lot then why shouldn't she splurge a bit?
WOAHHH!! Hold the phone!! Are saying that not everyone on MFP is here to lose weight? This is unreal...I need to go lie down...
Ikr, brand new information! Everyone knows that "fitness" websites are only for people trying to lose weight, people trying to bulk/gain/enjoy the occasional splurge day don't go here!
Where do they go? Somewhere where bitter negative Nancy types don't have to be faced with the sight of people eating more than them and not feeling guilty or disgusted with themselves. At least this is what I'm lead to believe. Either way, I'm gonna drown myself in funnel cake when the time comes, and I'll log it with a smile.0 -
Go read the book Shred.
When someone eats (example number) 1,300 cals everrrry day weight loss will not be good because your body gets in the routine of processing the amount and stifles progress.
Much like muscle confusion, when your workouts are always challenging different muscles so your body doesn't get used to your workout, you need diet confusion. You should not eat the same things everyday and you should not eat the same amount of calories everyday.
While 5k may be excessive, having a day where you greatly increase caloric intake is fantastic for the metabolism.
All in all no one knows your body and what works for it as well as you do.
Just some food for thought for everybody! I went through and read most of the posts and my goodness. Thankfully the lady with the heart made out of fruit as her profile pic is gone
I agree with what you sai......dear god did you just say muscle confusion and nutritional confusion in the same thread. Broscience overload0 -
So far, reading through this thread, I have learned that I have an eating disorder, am possibly disgusting, can only have a 5k day if I am trying to gain weight and should not be on this website as I am currently bulking. Who knew!
Oh, and that Acg has better food porn than me, but I already knew that!
Well at least you are owning all your flaws...thats step 10 -
I know what I'm making this weekend.
Not sure what the hoopla is about, it's only one day.

Hi Acg, glad you stopped by.

bacon cheese fries dipped in ranch...bloomin onion....yum....disgusting day, but yum.....
I'm struggling to reconcile "disgusting" and "yum" to describe the same thing.0 -
I wouldn't
I wouldn't either.
Why PLAN on such a gross overabundance?
Treating oneself to an indulgant meal out is one thing.
Specifically planned to go out and basically gain one pound on purpose? What for?
There's plenty of ways to indulge on a meal without sabotaging progress.
I don't get it.
But if the goal is 5000... Ihop for breakfast, Red Robin for lunch and Cheesecake Factory for dinner ought to take care of it pretty efficiently.0 -

The fats, sugars and salt are really not that high on the day you show.
Context is relevant.
I consider them to be very high. 111 g of sugar is a little over 50 teaspoons of sugar. If you don't "get" how this is bad, I suggest you put 50 teaspoons of sugar into a glass - actually count it out -- and come back and tell me that isn't alarming. And remember, that's 111 OVER the daily recommended amount. If the OP doesn't have it already, I bet she is pre-diabetic. Cravings for sugar and extreme thirst are symptoms.0 -
Bloomin' Onion with extra sauce and Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory are a must.

All I know is it would include atleast 5 crispy cream donuts.0

Absolute nonsense. I average between 140 - 200 g a day in sugar. As of last week my fasting blood sugar level was 71mg/dL. Sugar does NOT cause diabetes.
http://www.diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/causes/#type2
http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/causes/Causes_of_Diabetes_508.pdf
For those who typically don't read sources:
Risk Factors for Type 2 Diabetes
People who develop type 2 diabetes are more likely to have the following characteristics:
•age 45 or older
•overweight or obese
•physically inactive
•parent or sibling with diabetes
•family background that is African American, Alaska Native, American Indian, Asian American, Hispanic/ Latino, or Pacific Islander American
•history of giving birth to a baby weighing more than 9 pounds
•history of gestational diabetes
•high blood pressure—140/90 or above—or being treated for high blood pressure
•high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or good, cholesterol below 35 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), or a triglyceride level above 250 mg/dL
•polycystic ovary syndrome, also called PCOS
•prediabetes—an A1C level of 5.7 to 6.4 percent; a fasting plasma glucose test result of 100–125 mg/dL, called impaired fasting glucose; or a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test result of 140–199, called impaired glucose tolerance
•acanthosis nigricans, a condition associated with insulin resistance, characterized by a dark, velvety rash around the neck or armpits
•history of CVD

I had 3 cans of sprite a couple days ago, spread out over a 14 hour period. That's 114 grams of sugars, just in three 12 ounce cans. Beyond that I probably hit 90+ g of sugar every day and I am most certainly NOT pre-diabetic, unless my doctor is hiding such things from. I had a full work up in March when I switch birth control methods, and wouldn't be surprised if i was taking in twice as much sugar then .
Just because you find it alarming doesn't mean it actually is; another poster already said that the UK daily amount is 90g so is it not reasonable that your perception is alarmingly low?0 -

I obviously had other good that day so I fail to see how my soda+other food over 14 hours is any different that her sugary cereal+other good over the course of her day.
And, as I noted, I have well over the daily recommended amount of sugar a day, almost always 90+ grams, every day.

Do you know where the RDA came from?

I would include lots of doughnuts... krispy kreme. GO ALL OUT.
Also, dominos pizza. MMMMHHHMMM.0 -
