I would be writhing in pain if I attempted to consume 3-5k calories in a sitting. I consume a lot of calories on basis that I also burn a lot cycling, but nowhere near that in a sitting. Even 5k/day for me would be painful.

I can consume 3k a day eating clean, but no more.

Eating all that in one meal would require some extremely unhealthy eating, for me.

I know sumo wrestlers and other extreme athletes are capable though.
