How would you plan a 5000 calorie cheat day?

Fashionably late to the party....

I'll think over how to spend my 5000 calories whilst I wade through all this madness.

Honestly it's so hard to pick. I'm trying to find foods that are worthy but then I realize I already do eat a lot of junk as is lol For example, I already had In N Out twice last month and several Mcdonalds so I'm not really craving those. But I have decided on

Whole medium pepperoni pizza from Pizza Hut (1600 cals)
3 Krispy Kreme donuts (700 cals)
Bacon and egg sandwich (childhood fav from local place) (800 cals?)
Diddy Riese Ice Cream Sandwich (500 cals?)
Vietnamese Pork and Egg roll Noodles (1000 cals?)
Boba/Bubble Milk Tea (400 cals?)

Tentative list. My bday is actually very early next month but I don't wanna pig out on my bday! Maybe a week after. Anyway I guesstimated on a lot of the items, do you think they're accurate?

I highly recommend throwing in some Talenti chocolate peanut butter cup in there somewhere. Sara got me hooked on that this weekend and I would probably eat a whole pint on a 5000 cal day and be in heaven!

If you want to go hog wild on the ice-cream, I would highly recommend Haagen Dazs Chocolate Peanut Butter - oh lawdy, it's good. Higher calories that Talenti at 360 calories per serving - so a whole pint would be 1,440 calories.

Well damn, now I need to try that one too...Sara, I better look exactly like you when I am done with this ice cream regime!

I am disappoint in you Sara. If we're talking about calorie loading.

Cold Stone + donut (for me that's a krispie kreme apple fritter and a large apple pie a la cold stone ice cream)
Calories: OMFGSOGOOD!!!

Easy.

Step 1 : Go to my diary (it's open).
Step 2 : Go to April 1 (my birthday).
Step 3 : Eat what you find there.

You are a genius!

I wouldn't....I used to be able to eat that many calories in a day, but that was when I was overweight. If I tried to do that now, I would be in severe pain. The highest calorie days I have now are in the 2400 - 2600 calorie range.

That being said, if I COULD stomach more food, it would probably go down like this:

breakfast: french toast & pancakes with butter, maple syrup, nutella, & peanut butter. a bagel with cream cheese. glazed donuts. some bacon. quiche. full fat greek yogurt with honey. a smoothie (2500 cal)
snack: potato chips (500)
lunch: a cheeseburger with real mayo & avocado, fries, onion rings, & a milkshake (1460 cal)
snack: watermelon, bananas, grapes. a blueberry muffin. frosted bsc, cookie dough poptarts, & frosted strawberry poptarts. (1600 cal)
dinner: pizza. a salad with tons of full fat dressing & croutons. mac & cheese and pasta with pesto. a baked sweet potato with butter, sour cream, & cheese. sushi. chicken salad. (3400)
dessert: reese's peanut butter cups, a milky way & a twix, pb m&ms, twizzlers, see's candy butterscotch square chocolates, a slice of cheesecake, a cupcake, a brownie, molten chocolate lava cake, a slice of apple pie, some oreos, some milanos, & some soft chocolate chip cookies. some pb&j on a spoon. ooh and some cookie butter. (4170)
before bed snack: a lot of ice cream (preferably talenti sea salt caramel & ben & jerry's cinnamon buns) + some cinnamon toast crunch with almond milk + more reese's pb cups (1370)
total = 15,000

oops...might be a bit over.

Brunch at IHOP in the morning. Cheesecake factory at dinner, including taking home a piece of cheesecake to eat right before bed.

This is my dream.

I'm not an ice cream person. Mcdonald's soft serve for about 170 cal usually satisfies my craving for ice cream so I wouldn't down a whole tub.

I scanned through the thread and a lot of people ask why. With the way I'm eating now , I have one or two 1500-3000 cheat days a week but my weight this morning was 90.8 lbs so I think I can go for a higher calorie cheat day.

I am disappoint!

First of all, my cheat day would not be more than 3000.

"First of all" ? where is the second, third, or rest of the post?

That's a cheat week.

Yeah no kidding

A jar of almond butter, a box of mac & cheese and a box of some type of granola or trail mix with milk

Haha, I'm not too crazy for ice cream. When I do eat ice cream, it's Mcd, Costco frozen yogurt or some Dreyer if my family buys it. Nothing fancy.

Seriously though, you may want to try some Talenti. It is awesome! Plus you wont have to wait in that horrible line :laugh:

Ummm beer, cake, chips and chocolates? :P lots and lots of chips... :P

SOOOO easy to get to 5000+ haha I hate binging though >.< feels so guilty but yea it happens...
