    My brothers and I use 500g… for 3 people. Yes we do eat a lot. And that’s without the pesto, cheese etc

        That could be a reasonable amount based on the person. I’m a large framed dude, and when I was seriously trying to bulk through 7 days a week of HIIT, I had to eat like 5,000 Calories a day. My resting heart rate did get to the low 40s for a while, so that was cool (doctor said it was a good thing).

        Btw, eating 5,000 Calories of healthy food a day fucking sucks. It’s basically like eating is your full time job.

          I’m quite thin, so nope I guess I do have a black hole in my stomach.

          Once I get HRT I’ll eat these kinds of portions more regularly to increase its effects.

      In college I used to be able to down a full pound of pasta easily. Nowadays I get full after 20 noodles…

    • I usualy make around 200g… just for myself. It’s not thaat crazy. I now a lot of people who do so. I’m a relatively thin dude. But to be fair I do a lot of sports (although I have been injured for the past 3 month and haven’t stopped eating that much) I think it just realy depends on how effectively your body handles the food and therefore atrongly varies from person to person.
