Honestly though how the fuck do people eat 3500 calories a day, are you just eating all day long? I can barely force myself to break 2000.
Without seeing how they arrived at those numbers, I’m going to assume they aren’t accounting for food waste. They might be using food “sold/purchased.”
i do 3000 calories of cardio a week and find it hard to eat only 2k. I started counting my calories about half a year ago and I was eating 3k/day. I cut it down to 2k and tried to make better diet choices and lost about 30 lbs, but I’m really fricking hungry all the time due to how much I exercise.
