Calorie Ladder Results by:Pox 2009/11/04 This is the graph of the whole experiment: ** First question: Those double dot days are because I came back home and thus couldn't count calories as accurately anymore. So you'll have to make due with an estimate zone.... aw So did I make it? I guess I did. Despite probably going over a few times in the later part, I'm fairly confident that I stuck to it very strictly in the first part, probably under-estimating several times. So it all works out. But hey the scale doesn't like. I lost 20 pounds in those 41 days, from a predicted 15.7. So yeah there you go. I'll give you a more in-depth update later on. For now, here's the log from the second half. Enjoy basking in my stupidity. COMMENTS: On day 27 I was forced to go back home because of something that happened in my close family. So from that point onward I had a fainter idea of what I was eating. It was a good test to see if I could keep myself from devouring all the tasty shitty food there that I don't have to pay for. I'd eat entire rows of cookies as a snack sometimes or like half a pizza. YUMMY. THINGS I'VE LEARNED: - Breakfast cereals have way too many calories. All of them. - You can eat normally pretty much every day BUT DON'T DRINK OR TAKE DESSERTS. I think that's the biggest killer. You'll eat until you're decently full on normal food but if you drink or eat that muffin or those 5 cookies, that puts you in the red zone by 200-500 calories really fast. 500 extra calories per day is a pound a week. 52 pounds in one year. That's REAL FAT, REAL FAST. -Eating pastries/beer is doubly bad because it actually makes you MORE hungry. Eating one piece of cake makes you hungry for like 70% of the amount of cake you've eaten. You will eat until its gone. - 2000 calories a day isn't for sedentary people. The food guide people should tone those estimates down because I bet all those "based on a 2000 calorie diet" values on labels of just about all the food you buy are bs. They made the food guide based on the dietary requirements of a greek marathon runner, not a cubicle rat. Seriously look at the food guide. It says 6-12 servings of grains per day. They count those in slices of bread. That's anywhere from 600 to 1200 calories OF BREAD ALONE. That covers 1 food group out of 4. Holy shit you have to be a rocket scientist to manage to eat everything they recommend but still find food that will give you under 1800 calories. =============================================================== DAY 21 FOOD CALORIES NOTHING 0 Total: 0/0 Comments: Been drinking Coca-Cola 0 all day. Quite frankly this entire week is going to suck no matter what I do. Plus I went to the store only to find out there's like 4 calories in a stick of gum. There goes that plan. =============================================================== DAY 22 FOOD CALORIES 1 cup salad 70 15 grapes 30 Total: 100/100 Comments: I loves me some grapes. I feel just as bad today as yesterday. I'm tired. =============================================================== DAY 23 FOOD CALORIES 1.5 cup salad 105 47 grapes 94 Total: 199/200 Comments: The remainder of my spaghetti has been sitting in the fridge untouched for like 5 days now. Tomorrow I can finally eat some of that...ARRR =============================================================== DAY 24 FOOD CALORIES 1 cup spaghetti 262 7 grapes 14 24 Pickle slices 24 Total: 300/300 Comments: Shit my leftover spaghetti was rotten by the time I got to it today. Smelled like garbage. So I cooked up a new batch of non-wholegrain. BIG MISTAKE. It has 340 calories per 1/5th of package while the whole grain kind has 340 calories per 1/4th for the same size of package! That's 25% more calories. =============================================================== DAY 25 FOOD CALORIES 1 cup spaghetti 262 1 cup fruit juice 110 Total: 372/400 Comments: Almost out of the red zone now... =============================================================== DAY 26 FOOD CALORIES 1.5 cup spaghetti 393 3/4 cup fruit juice 83 Celeri + Mustard 15 Total: 490/500 Comments: That 1.5 cup of spaghetti felt like the first real meal I have eaten in two weeks...Plus that 3/4 cup of juice ( which was the last of that juice that I bought almost a month ago ) that made 476 calories. Kinda sucks when you've been up for 2 hours and have eaten all you're gonna eat for the day. Also, celeri is disgusting. It's like bad-tasting water. =============================================================== DAY 27 FOOD CALORIES 2 toasts with peanut butter and a banana 300 1 apple 55 1.5 cups stew 250+??? Total: 550-700/600 Comments: Bad day today. I was forced to go back home because of something in the family. Now I'll have no idea how many calories I'm eating.

I estimate as best I can. =============================================================== DAY 29 FOOD CALORIES 2 toasts with peanut butter and a banana 300 1.5 cup pasta with goulash 325+??? Total: 625-800/800 Comments: You know it's pretty sad that 2 toasts are half my calories for one day. =============================================================== DAY 30 FOOD CALORIES 2 toasts with peanut butter 220 1 cup pasta with cognac chicken 250+??? 1 apple 55 1 cup pasta with cognac chicken 250+???

You know those "part of a complete breakfast" breakfasts you see on the cereal commercials? I bet you those are at least 600 calories. It's like a bowl of cereal, a glass of juice, 2 toasts with butter and a muffin? Yes your kid will be very plump indeed. =============================================================== DAY 33 FOOD CALORIES 1 cup stew 200-250 1 piece dark chocolate 40 2 toasts with peanut butter 220 20 grapes 40 1 peanut butter toast 110 1 peanut butter toast 110 Trout, corn, rice, beets 290 1 piece dark chocolate 40 1 Nutella toast 120 Total: 1170-1220/1200 Comments: Woah look at that huge list of things for today! =============================================================== DAY 34 FOOD CALORIES 1 bowl cheerios with soy milk 400 2 cups veggies with cognac chicken 300-350 1 Nutella toast 120 1 bowl of soup 120 fish, rice, corn 290 1 piece dark chocolate 40 Total: 1270-1320/1300 Comments: For some reason, I am MORE hungry when I'm eating than when I'm not. =============================================================== DAY 35 FOOD CALORIES 1 Nutella toast 120 1.5 cups Cheerios w 1/2 cup soy milk 280 Little bit over 1 cup of stew 270-320 1 Nutella toast 120 3 cups salmon/potatoes thing 540-580 Total: 1310-1400/1400 Comments: Wow seriously I ate like 600+ calories for breakfast and 4 hours later I'm ravenously hungry.

I guess my body works like this: I gain weight when I eat 1500 calories but I lose 2 pounds per second that I don't eat. Makes perfect mathematical sense! My body makes 1 pound of fat from 1500 calories but somehow burns one pound of fat in 1500 calories. Maybe it stores inneficient fat? Is that possible? Maybe some people have super-dense blubber that you could put in your car instead of gas? =============================================================== DAY 38 FOOD CALORIES 3 cups Cheerios with 1 cup soy milk 450 2 Nutella toasts with banana 300 Bowl of macaroni with cheese 400-450 1 apple 55 1 cup salmon thing 180-195 1 portion salmon 160 Mustard Rabbit ( YUMMY FOR MAH TUMMY) 200-250 Total: 1465-1580/1700 Comments: I eat big breakfasts apparently. =============================================================== DAY 39 FOOD CALORIES 2 cups Cheerios with 1/2 cup soy milk 280 1 apple 55 2 cups Cheerios with 1 cup soy milk 340 Mergez with mashed potatoes 300-330 Lamb, veggies, 10% stout yum 700-770 Total: 1675-1775/1800 Comments: First beer I've had in over a month. Whew Beer is high in calories! Wee ... I had forgotten how hungry alcohol makes you...Even though I was at my limit for the day, I was ravenously hungry like 30 minutes after drinking.
