    How much fat can one person gain?

    I was kinda curious as to how much weight one person can gain, not muscle mass.

    If one was a couch potato and all they did was eat junk food all day could someone gain 30-40 pounds of fat in a month?

    Not that they would want to but is Is that possible?

    30 days of eating 6-7K calories in a day of nothing but potato chips, chocolate pizza etc. or is there a limit as to how much weight would actually be put on.

    Did you see the movie "Supersize me" I think it's called? That guy ate McDonalds every meal for a month and gained some serious weight.

    Just looked it up. He gained 25 lbs in 21 days eating 5,000 cals a day.

    I saw that movie - it totally grossed me out. Especially when the doctor told him to stop or he was going to be eight feet under.

    I waited for a couple days before I had an order of fries at Mickey D's
