I could consume 4000 kcal most days as a teenager without putting on weight. That is no longer the case and adjusting has been difficult. I'd need to go near 2000 to lose weight. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago Yeah, as a kid in high school, one of my go-to high snacks was an Entenmann's All Butter French Crumb Cake (~1740 calories) and a half gallon of 2% milk (~950 calories). It wasn't an everyday thing, but I'd house it no problem, and it wasn't the only thing I'd eat that day. I also swam competitively, although as I've grown older I've learned that it's essentially unrelated, and that your metabolism is just your metabolism, essentially regardless if your activity levels. I had trouble breaking 140 pounds at 5'8. That all stopped. It's pretty incredible how it all just stops. I'm still fairly active, but I wouldn't consider eating more than a serving at this point, and I instead have trouble cracking 165 (except from above this time). Oh well, this is life. permalink fedilink source parent
