could you eat 38,000 calories in a day?

I haven't noticed, but did anyone here mention that for the average person, that many calories would be a death sentence?

did you see the 19 year old son who did all of the food shopping and some food prep for his mother?

would you do that for your mom?

I only saw part of the show....and no I couldn't imagine doing that for/to her.

To digest 38,000 calories in whole food in one day you would have to have a very large stomach, these fat people have adapted their digestive systems over time while getting fat, to allow them to process so much food.

I guess you can look at it as an addict looks at smack, they know its wrong and still do it we just notice the large fatties more then the heroin addicts hiding in their appartments. One can food and weight gain can as anyone can control vs drugs which are highly addictive but in these cases food is no different then serious drug use

wait, would 38,000 calories really kill an average human immediately (we're not talking long-term health consequences like strokes and heart attacks)?

so, if i force fed someone 48 sticks of butter in the course of 24 hours it would kill them? no way.

48 sticks of butter (38,000) calories could be possible. that is 1 stick of butter every 30 minutes. you might get some very bad shits, and possibly fry your gall bladder, but that's about it.

I suppose it could depend on what was used to get those calories in. But yes, a lot of "normal" people would either die from that much food, or wouldn't keep any of it down.
