Stop eating and this wouldn't be the case.

FWIW, I bet a guy in my fantasy football league tonight that I could eat a 48oz. (no bone) rib eye, drink a 32 oz. beer (I got a Fat Tire), eat a hot pepper, and eat the potatoes that accompanied the steak in under 45 minutes. I didn't have much confidence as the closest I'd probably ever gotten was 36-38 ounces but I fasted. I had last eaten at 8pm last night and dinner was at 6:15pm today.

I had nothing to lose. I wagered nothing (other than perhaps my life by having a cardiac) and he put up the $150 entry fee should I accomplish my goal.

I didn't. I was halfway done the steak about 10 minutes in, ate another 10oz along the way, and all the potatoes, and most of the beer, but I just couldn't get it done.

I bet you could have done that in college though when you ran a 4.4/

You're a Dad now. You should be thinking about your health for your little girl.

Doubtful. Maybe? I don't know. It's so tough. I forget if I said it too but I had just 45 minutes to do it.

Fasting was a mistake. Milk, beans or some other similar thing to keep your stomach somewhat full without actually taking up lots of actual space. After a fast you're just going to have shrunk what your system considers 'full'- maybe a few hours to clear /some/ room, but otherwise it will be a negative.

Got a nice t-shirt from Bill Johnson's Golden Apple for finishing their humongous porterhouse meal.
