I drink too many of these and am a healthy weight! I'm just unhealthy because I drink those instead of having actual food so Im malnourished (I exaggerate but holy fuck I don't know how someone can have that with a meal and finish both,I never can)

It's a whole day's worth of maintenance calories for a medium-to-big active male. I sure hope you couldn't eat a whole meal on top.

True. I do usually burn 1-1.5k Calories 5 times a week running and the ones I get aren't quite this big so it's not ludicrous, but definitely not good for me. Seems to be roughly balancing out, I'm a hair over 6 ft and bounce between 145 and 155 lbs

I hear you, I’m relatively very healthy, but for a period of time was having something similar to this but probably less extreme a couple times a week. By US standards people would think my weight was normal at that time, but for me I was overweight. Unless you’re burning very high amounts of calories (sometimes I do) these kinds of items have a big impact on anyone’s weight.
