that cannot be true, 7 pounds is ridiculous

i'm going by the statistics in a magazine, i can believe it though.

7 pounds is 24,500 calories. ikes =X

heart_atrophied November 25 2005, 19:01:37 UTC

yeah, but think about what people serve on their table, the portions, and how many americans are overweight. it's repulsive.

24000 calories is still undoable.

Check out serving sizes here: http://walking.about.com/library/cal/blthanksgivingcalories.htm

An entire pumpkin pie is about 1500 calories.
& even if people had double or triple the portion sizes of the "Main Courses" it wouldn't come close.

well the average american is a fat-mcfatty ;D being a vegetarian i probably didn't gain a pound with the food i ate haha. also my metabolism is rather high, so i wouldn't have gained any weight to begin with lol

with that said, i pity the average american with their new 7+ pounds :P hehe

heart_atrophied November 25 2005, 19:10:48 UTC

and you probably don't eat all the shit food required to slow down your metabolism either :]

haha and just by the way, the average person gains five pounds every average day. so an extra two pounds on thanksgiving isn't too spectacular =P
