A sad as fuck realization It's 5am, and shit. My brother and sister-in-law (brother's wife) are both huge fucking hams. 5'10", 350-400 pounds. But that's not the realization (almost my entire family is fat, thank god I'm not).  At 5'10" a mid-healthy BMI of 22 would be ~155pounds. I'll say that they are 375 on average. So, they are 220 pounds over that. Each.  That's 770,000 Calories of fat, each. That would last me (6'0" 165 pounds) 385 DAYS at 2k/day. I could last over a year on their excess fat alone. 2 years on both of theirs.  How the fuck do fats not realize that they have consumed enough fucking excess calories to feed an entire adult human being for an entire year. Edit: From comments down below As best as I can tell, it takes ~2.5 calories to maintain a pound of fat for a day.  As far as I can remember, my brother has been 300lbs for the past 5 years, and slowly grew into that over the 7-10 years previous, So let's say in 2004 he weighed 160 pounds, gained 20 pounds a year until 300 pounds, then 15 pounds each year for 5 years (for sake of argument he gains all the weight on the first of the year). *Estimate for next year So it's taken an accumulated ~1,355,062.5 Calories to maintain his excess weight in the past 12 years.
