Realistically, for most folks?
10,000 calories seems like it's way too much, and not reasonable for most. For some? Sure.
It's not clear if this is a one time, occasional, or even once a week for a stuffing, or if this is intended be every day. So which is it?
Is this anything like those "cheat day" videos I see on YouTube sometimes? Though most authors/creators who do this, tend to be extremely fit and seem to almost live at the gym. But I've sometimes seen them do 10K or even 15K calories before, but certainly not every day.
If every day back to back, I'm convinced is impossible and would probably make you sick and unwell.
There are those competitive eaters you hear about, but they trained up to it. They also don't eat like that every day and will generally prepare for a couple or few days before the moment of truth.
Personally, I have had 4,000 calorie days several days in a row before, think 5 days. Doing that 2 days in a row is probably not that hard unless you're still quite small and very early on in your gaining journey.
I don't think I could do 10,000 calories in a single day, I don't think. There was one time I did 6,000 calories, but that involved drinking an entire quart of heavy cream, and I didn't feel that great the following day. Granted, that was about 40-45 lbs ago, but still.
True every day life is unlikely to be feasible, since folks have things like jobs to go to.
Maybe it'd be easier to do a 10K calorie day no more than once or twice a month, or at most, once a week.
The OP also mentions something about tracking progress, which suggests this isn't a one off thing.
So to recap, a one-time thing or every day?
Apologies if this was not clear in my original post. The video would be to try and consume 10,000 in 24hours (1 day). As a one off event... a challenge.
Tracking progress - Means tracking progress throughout the day, recording each meals and snack... A blog style video of how the participants are feeling throughout the day trying to consume the calories for the challenge. We also thought it would be fun to weigh in, in the morning before they start and at the end of the day.
Just to be clear, trying to eat 10,000 for a prolonged period of time would be irresponsible, and not something we would condone. We encourage members to remain fat and healthy as part of our rules and site guidelines. This is one of the reasons we wanted to check the limit with feedee's who may have partaken in something similar to see if the limit is doable or if its too much.
Hope that clears things up!
