i've oftened wondered about gut efficiency. if you overload and eat that many calories in a day can your body really absorb it all, or does half of it come out the other end.

I've wondered this as well...but not really interested in testing the theory out.

If it was really that much, you'd probably vomit it first.

i dunno about that, if u pace yourself most of it will get to your gut so you wouldn't have much to chuck. assuming you just ate and ate you could fill your gut quite a bit ..its not like your stomach shuts off once you hit a calorie ceiling. you maybe satiated but it'll still slowly let stuff pass.

Most active individuals don't go around eating 6,000 calories of cream puffs.
I'm sure there are some, but most won't.

I dunno. I've hit the 6-7k calorie range a few times in a single day. If I didn't exercise like a madman and watch what I eat the rest of the time I'd be pretty huge though.

I do this a lot. 6 days of physical training and 1 day of fun. Got to reward yourself or you will go nuts!

Edit: Now I see it, you multiplied the calories in one cream puff by the calories in a serving. It should be 110*22. Still a fattie though.

Edit2: Unless you did actually eat 260 cream puffs.

5 puffs = 260 Calories
1 puff = 260 Calories / 5
1 puff = 52 Calories

1 box = 110 puffs
1 box = 110 puffs * (52 Calories per puff)
1 box = 5,720 Calories, just like the OP found

all those puffs, and no passes? shame.

I am reminded of my oreo contest from several years ago. I think that was in the neighborhood of 3000 Calories in 10 minutes.
