Thoughts on this movie?

>> No.10968043

made me want to eat mcdonalds, but also FUCK it because it's the reason they took away the super size option and it was built on a foundation of lies

still to this day he refuses to release his diet logs of everything he ate during that month because the amount of weight he gained is mathematically impossible based on what he claimed to eat
he simply had to be eating more than what he told us

It was hyperbole to make a point, but delivered as unadulterated fact. I'd have taken it more seriously if he'd been a straight shooter, not to mention that anybody that may have been helped by his message probably isn't watching that shit.

>>10968043
Huh? He averaged ~5k calories during the month. Given his prior weight and reduced TDEE (he even says he severely limits his movement during the experiment), plus the excessive salt and sugar intake, his 24lb weight gain isn't unreasonable.

I agree.
Well if I remember, the rules said he had to try everything on the menu at least once, and he had to super size it if they offered. It's so shitty that McDonalds felt "ashamed" for offering more food for more money. They don't have this arbitrary dollar amount limit, "sorry sir you went over $10", fuck you.
I can almost understand making "would you like to super size?" not standard, but discontinuing it completely is just stupid.

Also, I don't super size, I never have. I buy nuggets or a sandwich, no drink, no fries.

Oh I forgot. He had to order side and a drink, and eat there three times a day. Of course if you're drinking calories and eating fried foods (most of the time he got french fries) you'll consume more calories than you're burning. He never got water, and this movie is what made mcdonalds add salads and parfait

If was true people would use cigarettes as incense is what I thought at the time, not even considering the fact you're inhaling a lot more smoke puffing off the cigarette.

I calculated how much Michael Phelps burns on a good day. He's 6'4" at 194 pounds and 33 years old. With 6 hours of vigorous swimming he burns 5,200 calories. That's not including the 2,000 everyone pretty much burns in a day.

average person is going to burn 2k a day, an average pound of fat in the human body is around 3000 calories of energy. The human body is not 100% effective in taking in ever calorie over what it needs but it tries very hard to be.

If he was doing 5500 calores per day, at most he would have digested 3500 over daily intake needed. For the sake of arguement we'll assume that 100% of that was injested, meaning that 1.17 pounds would have been taken in, per day. So in reality he would not gained more than 35 pounds, this is with a round up and assuming 100% of all calories were taken in.

When I was working full time and doing grad school I started eating at McDonald's more often and I was fit. Gained 20 pounds over 2 years but was able to lose 4lbs in a week by just starting up cardio again. I would eat 3 sausage burritos and a hash brown for breakfast, skip lunch then eat 2-3 cheeseburgers, a hot n spicy, medium fries and a fountain drink but I would just get water.
