    Default 8000 Cals a day and 62 Pounds

    http://www.spiegel.de/international/...729805,00.html

    I thought this was interesting so I posted it.

    The most I ever consumed was about 5,000 daily and that was at the height of powerlifting and being 250lbs.

    Consuming 5,000 cals a day everyday was freaking painful.

    My mind is blown at 8,000

    She never eats salad and doesn't touch fruit, either. Her eating behavior corresponds to the clichéd image of the US teenager who eats nothing but junk food.
    A reporter once wrote that she has to eat a meal every 15 minutes. Nonsense, says Lizzie. It is true, however, that she feels hungry far more often than normal people do. If she ignores the impulse, her energy level soon plummets. Because she has no reserves at all, a lack of food becomes quickly and seriously noticeable.
    It is well known that the body craves simple fats, carbs, and salts (All of which are found in abundance in junk food) perhaps there is a correlation?

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Shouldn't they do some surgeries on her, fix her up? And why is her face blurred?

    OK, clearly it's not self-absorption as that'd be easy to work out. I'd go with a metabolic problem - de-linked mitochondria or circular metabolic pathways. But with that I am surprised her frame can dissipate the amount of heat that this would create. Maybe her body is used to it?

    She must have appalingly inefficient digestion. Sorry to lower the tone but she must also defecate rather regularly. poor thing!

    Maybe she should marry the guy without a forehead. They'd make a beautiful couple.

    Though, it could be there is an issue simply to do with energy storage. This is why she keeps having to eat, because she needs the constant supply of energy, but even then, it doesn't all have to be used at once. So instead of having a car with a fuel tank to store the petrol, she needs to be constantly feed instead. So the vast majority of the 'food' she eats, just passes through her anyway.

    Wait, are you suggesting that she dumps a lot or sweats a lot?

    I'm guessing she may be physically putting 8000 kcal into her mouth, but most of them are going right through her. Some sort of stomach/intestinal problem where she can't absorb nutrients properly. Either that or the most ravenous tapeworm known to man.

    Any doctor with half a brain can see if someone's faecal matter is normal or not, and diagnose malabsorbtion.

    What's frightening is that some people seem to envy her.

    That poor thing!



    I am fascinated by her view that she is blessed. Special. I find that odd, but I can also understand why she'd think that. It's a fascinating thought.

    She thinks that because she's touched in the head. That or her brain doesn't receive the nutrients it requires.

    We are all blessed in some ways that to others might be strange or unexplainable. For me, my abnormally large penis causes many issues for me like getting a pair of jeans to fit me properly or the constant harrassment I recieve from TSA agents while traveling. Many would find this to be more of a curse but I find it as a great benifit especially when I need to see how deep a pool is or whether I need to clean my ear and i don't have a q-tip....

    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
