gamer.tv Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 This literally popped into my head when, after initially planning a healthy dinner of wholewheat pasta with a tomato sauce, I threw caution to the wind and bought some pizza's for us instead. This then led to me thinking that I could probably eat pizza every day, but that I'd have to be careful about what else I'd eat and...well, here we are. Although I've phrased one of the diets as 'unhealthy', let's just assume that you do get all essential nutrients you'd need to fight off scurvy and rickets. An example of the two menu's might be: Unhealthy: Steak, Hash Browns and Fried Eggs with Toast 16" pizza with wings Healthy: Overnight oats Ants on sticks Ham salad sandwich with crudites and low fat hummus Smoothie Brown rice with stir fried vegetables and grilled, spiced chicken Would you rather binge twice, or eat more often.

gamer.tv Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 Having a quick google: Steak: 250 Hash Browns: 350 Two Fried Eggs: 180 Two pieces of Toast: 250 Pizza: 2950 (Para John's cheese pizza) Wings: 400 (6 domino's hot wings) So 4380, which isn't that far off. We'll assume that for both diets, the person will lead an active lifestyle, exercise for an hour a day (30 minutes running, 30 minutes lifting would burn about 500). Throw on 2300 as BMR and then throw on the calories burning in an active, we'll call it even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So BMR, the calories needed to maintain you at your basic level, 500 calories thrown on for extra exercise and I'd wager about 200 or so calories used on boring, day-to-day tasks like walking, cleaning, climbing stairs, typing, sitting upright and all the rest of it.

Bacon Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 When I get a pizza, that is usually both meals. As in all I eat that day is pizza. The other day I had a full rack BBQ ribs and some fries and that was all I ate. Well, I think I had some popcorn and a hand full of Reese's Pieces as well but the only "meal" I ate was the ribs. But that is kinda rare. What I usually do is I have something like an instant ramen bowl or cereal, and then dinner is something bigger like eggs, french toast, and bacon, or pork chops and fried potatoes, or spaghetti and garlic bread. Of course that doesn't account for anything like chips or grapes. Fuckin love grapes, man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ominous Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 The healthy option, with an unhealthy meal if I run 10+ miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokt Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 My eating habit are usually the 2 bad meals a day with a ton of snacks inbetween. I would prefer the smaller meals throughout the day with maybe one larger meal for dinner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
