Out of disbelief, some started questioning, “can’t be right. He’s not eating 17k calories a day. I think it’s total for the week.” For a few, the consumption is quite reasonable, as they said, “in peak, I’d say that’s about right for his size. I think the minimum he used to intake was 10k calories per day so this is probs peak calories during training for WSM.” and “if u think someone who weighs 200kgs is eating as much as me at half that weight idk what to tell you. he does eat that much”
