22_Shooter 1,560 Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 (edited) Sounds like a context I'd get into with friends over some shit talking, lol. Here's my experience: When I had lost a ton of weight (Went from like 215 to 175)........I could eat ABSURD amounts of food and feel fine, at 175LBS. I used to think I could eat a lot when I was 215, but it was nothing compared to when I was 175. Weird how that works. I'm up to about 190ish now, and again, I can't eat the amounts of food I used to be able to. I was told that skinny people can eat more due to less fat around their stomachs and it being able to stretch more, or something. No idea if it's true, but kinda makes sense. Hell, look at most food contest winners; their relatively small. Edited July 16, 2011 by -Shooter- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hell, look at most food contest winners; their relatively small. yeah i get what your saying.i know there are alot of little guys that can really put it down.its just i thought with the love of food i have and knowing i too can put some food down that i may have edged him out.i was wrong.however i know now that i can for sure eat faster just not more.so when it comes to a large pizza i know i can finish it,therefore maybe my speed will beat his capacity this time i must win one for the big guys,cause you dont get in this kind of shape with exercise alone...ohh noo.it takes several long hard years to indulge this body with beer and buffets Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IndyArms 10,186 Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 I have the same thing going where I work... my buddy at work weighs in at 180... I top the scales at 390. ( Yeah.. Indy is no small dude!! ) He can drink a 30 pack of Coors light by himself in a night... and THAT'S why I think he can eat like a HORSE... cause he has a stretched stomach from liking the brews... I cant eat anywhere NEAR the amount of crap he can... and I can pack it away... Like was stated earlier... WATCH them little guys... LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnathan T 1 Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Skinny guy here. All this talk about food is making me hungry. I think I'll have 3 no.2's, 2 no.4's, 3 no. 5's, oh... & a family size soft taco meal. What, no milkshakes??? On to Steak & Shake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arik 565 Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Im a skinny guy, about 6ft and 165lbs. I eat all day and drink ale everyday in summer and hard liquor 365. But I do a lot of running around and keep active. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sidewinderl 43 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Went to a pizza buffet one time with my dad and his friend...combined they're probably over 600 lbs. I'm 6'2" and was either 125 or 135 at the time. I out ate both of them combined without even breaking a sweat. Lately I just haven't had that appetite...out of shape and quite a bit heavier (relatively speaking). The best way that I've found to curb appetite (don't need the appetite I used to have if I'm not active enough for it) is to eat meals with an obese guy whose every mannerism drives me insane...just everything about the way he eats, and the simple fact that he thinks he can still eat as much as he did when he was 20. I lose my appetite pretty quick. It even works for him...went to a buffet one time, and he sat facing a woman so morbidly obese that even he lost his appetite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BuffetDestroyer 969 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 As my name states, I scoff at challenges like this! I recently did the Fatburger Triple King (XXXL) Challenge and to make it fair, I ordered fries and a large Oreo Cookie milkshake! However, I never underestimate the skinny dudes since that tiny Japanese dude banned from the hotdog challenges will put everyone to shame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
