    I remember having this discussion many moons ago about how calories are a retarded, outdated and very simplistic method for diet control.

    Does anyone know where the thread is?

    We all know in a calorie deficit that weight loss will occur but we need to remember that calories are a unit of measurement and are calculated by a flame in a laboratory not as the body works as a unit.

    I would rather eat a low calorie, nutrient dense diet than a calorie perfect, nutrient low diet.

    Anyone recall the discussion?

    I used the search function, I'm sure the thread title was actually 'Is a calorie a calorie?' and I believe I started it

    Can't find it though....

    Meal 5 - 2x4 packs of tuna with mayonaise sandwiches.

    Meal 6 - Bedtime shake 2 gallons milk.

    How a man can eat 36,000 calories is beyond me.
    I nearly died laughing!
    Just the thought of eating a WHOLE chicken... >.<
    Did you ever do it in the end man?

    I've eaten a whole chicken many times, I'm sure a few members of this board have?

    1kg of oats with 30 scoops of whey and a litre of OJ on the other hand.....
