      For 15 years I was eating 6,000 calories a day to maintain being 50 lb underweight. This would have definitely appealed to me back then. But I don’t think there’s enough pickles.

          That’s a great question and I wish I had an answer for you that was scientific.

          From the ages of 15 to 30 I was constantly seeking to do 6,000 calories a day to maintain being 6’2 and 135. At the age of 16 a doctor took one look at me and said “yeah you’re burning like 6,000 calories a day” It was difficult. I had all the same symptoms of anorexia like a heart condition that’s haunted me the rest of my life. I have a nephew who’s going through the exact same issue now. It wasn’t fun. But I turned 30 and I gained 50 lb in 3 years. I never felt better in my life. It was amazing!. I finally had the strength to do … life.

            I wasn’t underweight, but I was skinny. I probably ate 4-6k calories a day and never went above 150lbs until I turned 30. That’s also when I got an office job, though. So, then I had to work to maintain my weight.

      I think it’s perspective, that looks like a full French baguette and regular eggs

    At this point why even bother putting the mustard on a plate? Surely this abomination of a sandwich cannot get any more messy.

      Same. Boiled eggs and Dijon mustard make for a good combo.

      That said, I’d eat the bread separately with butter.

    Would you rather eat a whole raw egg, with eggshell, or ask for a sandwich when you visit this guy?
