I haven't quite been able to do that yet. But I always try to eat portions that are a good bit larger than what is probably typical.
I notice the OP is in South Africa, and I'm not sure if Wal-Mart has a presence there, so talking about comparable portions can be difficult, since I don't know what sizes items are sold in.
Wal-Mart sells these small slices of creme cakes in packs of 10. The most I've been able to eat in one sitting was 5 of the 10 slices in the package, which according to the nutrition facts was 950 calories, though it's important to note that I was sure I had other food at that time too, and I typically prefer to drink half & half in place of whole milk (320 vs. 150 calories per cup, and it's creamier) to help wash it down.
Maybe I have a different mentality, but I don't feel gluttonous as if I'm being naughty or doing something wrong. Instead, if I've been able to eat more (calories but also volume), instead I feel a sense of satisfaction. Much like how it sports or games, there's higher difficulty levels as your skill or ability increases. Also how I consider moving up to a larger clothing size to be an upgrade.
But, feeling stuffed can also feel disappointing, if on that day I wasn't able to get enough calories in. Like, if I feel stuffed but I barely, or didn't quite get to the 3K calorie mark. This is more likely to happen if I go pretty much all day without eating and then try to almost binge at the end of the day.
I do have a dream of eventually being able to eat an entire 8" cake (that's about 4" tall I think) in a single sitting, but I think I'm a ways away from that.
