10,000 calorie challenge

So I'm house-sitting for my step-brother this weekend and looking after his dog, and started planning how to entertain myself.

I always thought these Youtube eating challenges looked fun and playing with some calorie calculators online it doesn't even look all that difficult 😅

I'm so excited for it already. Just all day of movies and snacking until I'm unable to move

I didn't manage 10k... I had to stop somewhere between 8 and 9000 calories 😩

I started with 4 thick peanut butter sandwiches and a carton of orange juice, then took the dog for a walk. I came back and watched my first movie with a bottle of coke and a bag of M&Ms. Ordered a Chipotle pre-lunch. Then some pasta and veggies and a couple more cans of Coke. Had a break for 30 minutes and went out for a slow walk (waddle) with the dog again 😅
I don't even want to list the rest as it was a lot 😱
A pizza, some cheesecake, McDonalds...

I felt like Thanksgiving x3, I was so stuffed full that my body became pretty uncooperative in things like getting up, bending, walking 😅
I don't know if I'd do it again though, and definitely not for a long time if I did.

@Emele that's really impressive still! A lot of people underestimate how much food you have to eat to get calories that high. Once I challenged myself to eat 6000 calories every day for five weeks to win a weight gain competition, and I was basically packed to capacity 24-7. My record was about 8000 calories in one day, and I barely managed it.
By the end of it, I had gained almost 40 pounds.
