As one of those that easily destroy an XL pizza in one go… why is that terrifying?
I Mean, overall I don’t eat all that much… I never eat breakfast and very rarely eat lunch, so one or two meals a day for me (historically a very active person) has to be large to make up for the times I don’t have time (or want) to stop and eat. So it takes at least a large pizza or like two boxes of Mac & cheese to even come close to refilling my fuel tank.
You just described how it works! People get mixed up on calorie intake. I’m scrawny, but when I eat, I eat. No calories other than beer at night. Not a Coke, not a single pork rind, not even a Jolly Rancher. Nada.
So people see that and think, “Gosh! Wish I had a metabolism like his!” Nah. I just don’t eat in between meals.
When I was 20 I could easily pound down a full Papa John’s pizza and stay skinny as a rail. Nowadays I eat one cookie after dinner and my body permanently incorporates it into my mass, never to be released again.
I dont know yhe other commentor, but i am pretty much permanantly poor because i have to eat about 2800 just to maintain my weight. I literally cannot afford to feed myself the massive amount of food it requires for my body to simply maintain.
Im 30, 145 lbs, 6’3", and it only takes my body about 45 minutes for food to go in one end and out the other, whereas its supposed to be closer to 8 hours

Rationalizing the 'za to perfection…

So, using a 16” pizza as a “xl” size.
PapaJohns XL cheese: 3000 calories Dominos XL cheese: 2980 calories
I powerlift 3-4 days a week and run 30-60k a week depending on how many days I lifted.
If I ate JUST one of those a day as a 6’ tall man I’d still gain weight and want to die.

Age and biology are big factors here. For me to gain, at the pace you go weekly, I’d have to make myself sick eating enough to keep up.
3000 calories a day is a lot my dude, that’s a lot of food being talked about.

You mean calories? I’m a little lost.
Are you Americaning?
Km
Km makes sense. And few people run 30-60Km a week, so that threw me. I’ve known exactly one person to run that per week, and she was an outlier.
So, let me do the math, this guy is running 18-38 miles a week? OK. LOL, I walk that. :)
