Over the last couple of months we’ve started experimenting with using our abnormally large stomach capacities and general love for food to create different styles of eating content outside of massive food challenges. While it’s been a total blast eating and ranking unreasonable amounts of fast food desserts and performing blinded folded side by side comparisons of similar products, when opportunity comes knocking who are we to turn it away? So, after one of our amazing subscribers, Robert, offered to fund a good ol' 10,000 calorie challenge, we decided to get back in the game and take on a combined total of 21,000 calories in the fan favorite “Mystery” style challenge!
It was a fun and unexpected video for us to pull out this week and we want to give a HUGE thank you to Robert for his support and for helping make this one possible.
We hope y’all enjoy this week’s food challenge and please be sure to give it a ‘like’ and subscribe to the channel for lots of fun food content to come!
Much love,
-Pete & Nate

FAQ’s:
Q: How do you not gain weight?
Well, we are currently intentionally gaining weight but here’s a quick answer to how we managed to do weekly food challenges for a year and a half without gaining it:
A: Endurance sports (primarily running, cycling and some resistance training tossed in) and extreme discipline & sacrifice with our daily diets is how we manage not to gain weight. We eat mostly vegetables, fruits, some whole grains and low fat dairy on the days outside these challenges. The calories consumed in a food challenge are the only calories consumed that day and sometimes the day following as well seeing our appetites are typically shot from so much food and the thought of eating is very off putting. Two days out we are back to large amounts of vegetables and increase to maintenance from there. We also often eat most of our days calories in a smaller eating window (we frequently bounce between intermittent fasting & OMAD diet as it just seems to work with our lifestyles and eating preferences). Anyone with a larger than normal stomach capacity like us, the drive to push through the discomfort of a challenge like this, and a basic understanding of energy balance (calories in vs calories out) can do it with enough disciple and intention (not that we recommend it).
Also worth mentioning is that we do not exercise to burn the calories consumed in a challenge but rather we are able to consume higher calorie diets due to our love for endurance sports and said discipline with our daily diets.
Q: Can you make a “What I eat in a day” / fitness focused video?
A: While we’re sure that type of video will eventually make its way out there, we are only able to produce one piece of quality content with our current schedules. We’re still in the very early stages of establishing ourselves within the food challenge genre and we’re constantly experimenting & trying to improve upon our style to make our channel/challenges a unique experience. This channel in particular will most likely always primarily revolve around food challenges but, if this ever became a legitimate source of income and we were able to focus our full attention towards creating content, our goal would be to start a second channel to offer more of a look into that side of our lives. So, for now, food challenges are the name of the game.
