This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

I assume Anons not hungry due to the extreme constipation

Pretty close to the Beard Meats Food diet: 7000kcal meal twice a week and yogurt with berries the other days

Just looked up some serving sizes, etc, at some of the most famous cheesesteak places in philly. This will be around 2500-3000kcal. Honestly not as high as I thought. I was thnking a 12" philly would be around 2000-2500kcal, and turns out they are like 1000-1250kcal less.

yeah not too bad! getting your daily calories in a single meal doesn't sound super healthy but i guess if you're satiated for a whole day afterwards, it's kinda alright ^^

unless it was one of those oreo shakes from Baskin Robbin's

Wow that's just impressive to be honest. You can either eat healthy stuff the whole day, I'm talking 3 meals + snacks, already reaching calorie surplus most likely (unless you're huge), or you can have one (1) of these shakes.

This thing would kill a European instantly

Can I have cream with the berries?

This is absolutely a real thing. I had a calorific breakfast sandwich for breakfast this morning, a diet coke for lunch, it's been 8 hours, not close to hungry yet. My kids think it's odd, that I should be hungry at lunch regardless but I think that's the way appetite is supposed to work, they just haven't quite stopped growing yet.

That's why people will see a skinny person eating a whole pizza and think "WTF"? They don't see that the person is then full until next day lunchtime or whatever.

My husband says if you push past that and eat (he bulked once) that your appetite adjusts and you get bigger and hungrier. But bodies generally want to sort of stay the size they are, so don't signal "eat, dammit!" if you have funded it enough to maintain.

100% this, the body moves to maintain whatever you feed it, which to be fair, is probably externally influenced by the amount of work you output. One of the solutions to eating too much, is literally to just eat less. Of course, fat bulking is really weird, and getting rid of it is even weirder, that's human biology for you.
