If I were to be eaten as Halloween candy what would my macros be? 5'2, 100 pounds, 19% body weight. Any cannibals out there? I understand if I get no replies.

Well I am guessing you would be around 350,000 calories since we compare one pound to 3500 calories0

That would be true if she were 100 lbs of fat. There are less calories in muscle than fat, pound for pound. Plus so much of the body is water, which is no cals. Hmmm this is complicated0 -
im glad i cant even understand or relate to your question.0

Well, if she is at 19% body fat, does that mean that 81% is muscle, bones, water, blood, whatever? Maybe THAT is the dumbest question ever. I've heard women hold more water than men, but in any case the average adult body is 50%-60% water, leaving ~26% for fat, bones...and stuff....uh, right?
edit:
About 30-40% of the weight of the human body is the skeleton, but when the bound water is removed, either by chemical desiccation or heat, half the weight is lost.

Roughly...
12 lbs fat (5500 grams)
20 lbs protein (9000 grams)
3 lbs carbs (1500 grams) (that one is a little tough, it would depend on how you were....ummm..."prepared"...)
And that's actually a pretty neat question, IMO...0 -
I watched a movie where the plane crashed and they ate each other

I must be the only geek here who thinks that's the coolest question I've heard all week. The answer eludes me right now but I can see myself not getting much sleep trying to work it out!!!!0

This is an awesome question, and maybe I'll see if I can write a script that calculates that, just for funsies.0

I guess parts of you would be discarded too, so it's probably necessary to work out the calories for the edible portion...0
