    I'm amused at some of the responses. When I was trying to gain weight I was eating 4-5k a day for months. I like how this is more than some peoples worst, lol..

    that said, I've been to a few buffets and rib eating contests and the like with teamates. I would have to assume 10-15k easy.

    Well over 10k.

    Most I ever tracked was over 5k - but I burnt over 6k that day, so all worked out fine :).

    I could easily eat that sort of amount (5k) on a daily basis and probably have at points!

    I am not sure I can count that high. When I had a very active job, I would count calories up to about 3000 cry then quit then have a snack later then dinner then another snack. So there is that.

    I could during this period put something like this away.

    Breakfast: Two really big doughnuts with custard filling and one of those pints of chocolate milk. That's about 900 calories cuz they were really big dougnuts.

    Snack muffin. I don't know they were big muffins at least 250 calories.

    Lunch Two Double Decker Tacos for about 700 calories and I would stop and get a bread stick somewhere as well for an additional 130 calories or so.

    Dinner : a Pizza for about 2500 calories

    So about 4500 this was probably a typical amount of calories for me for a long time. The food might not have been typical I did eat stuff that I would cook, but it would also be high in calories. I occasionally would eat a salad or some fruit. When I tried dieting I would try to cut my calories in half and for the amount of work I was doing this was probably a very wrong thing to do and I never stuck to that for long. I did lose like 20 lbs once and I felt like I was starving all day long. If I would have made a modest cut of 500 and tried to be active even when I wasn't working, I am sure I would have lost a good amount of weight even though my calorie count would be considered very high by some people.

    Probably the night I ate a 50 piece bucket of Buffalo wild wings. 3600-4400 est. not the bad really.

    To anyone who thinks they've never eaten a lot of calories, I think your just fooling yourself.

    Since logging, maybe 2,300? I aim for 1800 but I do on occasion have enough exercise to allow myself extra. I haven't logged over the winter holidays before but I bet it gets quite high over Christmas.

    I'm guessing around 9000. I tracked a really bad day before I committed myself to losing weight and it was over 8,000 but that was probably close to the most I've ever ate in one day. I had like four huge meals and they were very fattening foods (like KFC). My average before was probably around 4,000. I used to eat from McDonalds most mornings and I would get two sandwiches, a hash brown and large sweet tea. Plus, fast food or carry outs for lunch and snacks from the vending machine and a big hearty dinner. Now, most of my meals are about 500 calories and I usually have two healthy snacks per day. Amazing, the difference now.

    Right before I started taking charge of my life, at one point I was eating 6500+ calories a day. It was the most I used to eating and am glad I won't be going back to it. I sometimes now peak out at around 4,000 calories now though which isn't bad
