Wasn't this the guy from Super Size Me that buys them and freezes them for his lunches at work and is RAIL thin?


Edit:Found the Wiki. Yep it's him.

He's still alive ?!?!?

Me and my mates at uni went through a phase of eating a big mac meal every day for lunch, that lasted about two weeks before we all started getting pretty ill!

That guy was the best part of Supersize Me. I liked when he talked about throwing them in the back of his car to save them for a couple of days later when he used to live an hour away from the nearest McDonald's.

That guy lives an hour away from me.

I periodically visit family in Fond du Lac. I should hang out at McD's one day and get a picture with him.

That was my first thought to. 23,000 Big Macs in 36 years. That's 13,149 days (considering leap years) for about about 1 3/4 Big Macs per day. Now isn't that a legacy for ya. Rail thin huh? Amazing.

Oh god I'd love to see a picture of this guy. Or better yet, his arteries.

I've had a Big Mac a day for about 6 years. They're delicious.

And no, I'm not fat. I used to be muscular, but I stopped working out, and now I'm approaching chubby.

[superbassman2000]

I used to live in Fond Du Lac--Maybe this will be a nice pull to live in Wisconsin

Wisconsin--Where calories don't count

in any case, I think so long as you do the work to counter the calorie intake, you are just fine I think that most of the people that complain about fast food making you fat are the people that are eating fast food and then sitting around all day, so the calories just build up.

His colon must look like hell.

[Dr Stankface]

That's sad.

[wdinc01]

Guys, he's not crazy. Just dedicated.

I still think it's kinda gross.

[JacoLesFlea]

I've reached self-satisfaction every day sometimes more than once since I turned 14. I think I went a month straight without accomplishing this personal goal only because I was laid up in the hospital after a serious car accident. Thats a 30 year run....would this be news worthy?

I don't what's worse, the fact that he ate so many, or his statement that "its the highlight of my day". Two very depressing concepts.

Well, he doesn't eat anything else. So he's basically saying, "mealtime" is his favorite part of the day. Which I'd probably say too if I only ate one 1080-calorie meal each day.

The fact that the behavior is due to obsessive-compulsive disorder, though, I think is pretty sad.

That would be an average of 1,749 Big Macs a day. Doesn't really sound that extreme to me, unless it is with fries and a coke every time as well. The latter are worse than the hamburgers I think.

1,749 big macs a day would kill most people
