A genie is making you an offer you can't refuse: Over the next 100 days, you must either (a) consume less than 90,000 calories in total or (b) consume more than 900,000 calories in total. If you consume between 90,000 and 900,000 calories, you will die.

No cheating by getting nutrion via IV, vomitting, getting your stomach pumped, or anything like that.

Which do you choose? What's your strategy?

Under sounds pretty tough. Are you sure?

For the 900,000, you could burn a good number off by working out, espcially in the early days before you start getting too fat. And it's only 100 days. I think the under 90,000 would be much healthier for 99% of people, though.

the "calorie" measures an infinestimally small amount of heat. when people talk about "calories" they really mean "kilocalories" ie 1,000 calories. But no one says kilocalories, instead they say Calories (capital C). One Calorie = 1,000 calories. The genie in op, by neglecting to capitalize Calorie, accidentally made the hypo trivially easy if you pick the over (and certain death if you pick the under).

Anyway this is your pedantic lawyer moment of the day, I'm going to go italicize some commas

LMAO, just looked it up and even at my peak level of activity in college, I'd max out in the 3000 - 4000 a day range on a high protein diet (I've embraced being a twink since then, so I'm around 2500 a day these days if I had to guess)

So like ohnoes tp said, you'd need to be a Michael Phelps training lifestyle to consume the 9000 a day level, but the 900 a day works short term just living a quiet lifestyle with mostly long walks for exercise, doing meditative fasts etc.

Definitely safer and better for your health. 900 calories is still plenty to live on and get sufficient nutrition to function without organ damage if you're smart about it.

I don't know about easier, though. It would take a lot of discipline.

Explain why and explain your strategy. Limiting to 900 calories a day would not be easy. 3/4 of Americans are overweight or obese, when all it would take to not be overweight or obese is limiting oneself to 2000 calories a day.

It would be difficult. I don't have a coherent considered strategy yet but I imagine it would involve a lot of egg whites and bone broth. But I know that I absolutely could not and would not want to do 9000 calories a day for 100 days, imagine what irreparable damage that would do to a person.

There's a morbidly obese guy that went over a year without eating by just consuming water and vitamins. If you dedicated yourself and took vitamins you could absolutely do it. You could satiate yourself by consuming a ton of vegetables or celery.

Would there be an official running calorie count you could check daily? Or have to track everything yourself, risking it being very imprecise, and finding out only at the end?

With the penalty being death, seems this would be pretty important.

Best way to achieve autophagy. Feel best on day 3 and after. First two days can still feel some hunger. After that you get an energy boost and mental clarity. Longest I've done is 10 days last december. Hardest to get through is the weekend, since so many distractions and temptations.
