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

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.

Wow! I use 200g for 2 people and I thought I was using a lot!

I can eat 500g by myself in a sitting... or at least in my prime when i wheighed 100kg but still people looked horrified when they saw how much i ate.

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

Yeah that's 2-3× servings per serving

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 agree that 2.5× the serving makes sense if your goal is to eat 2.5× the calories.

My mind is blown.

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.
