'In the spirit of leaving milk & cookies out for Santa to fuel that long trip around the globe, we brought in over 25,000 calories worth of the classic combo for the final food challenge of our epic 3-part Christmas series! It was a bit unclear to us which flavor the big, jolly fella typically springs for so we included a wide variety ranging from classics like sugar, chocolate chunk, and white chocolate macadamia nut cookies all the way to specialty options like S’mores, apple crisp, turtle brownie & more! While taking on 84 of these monstrous cookies and some vanilla-spice eggnog could probably compete with even Santa’s biggest cheat day, we fought through one of our largest calorie menus to date, aiming for another single-sitting food challenge victory. We hope you’ve enjoyed this little run of Christmas themed videos and we’re looking forward to bringing y’all some wild new content in the new year!

A: Endurance sports (primarily running, cycling and some resistance training tosses 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 4 hour 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 utilized 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. Q: Why don’t you feature more restaurants for your challenges? A: Seeing we are still a smaller channel, working within a budget is essential to ensure we can continue making these videos. While buying from restaurants would be a lot of fun, shopping at grocery stores and wholesale clubs is a far more cost effective way of doing food challenges. For instance, our 22,000 calorie Pop-Tart challenge cost roughly $30 where as our 22,000 calorie Cheesecake Factory video ran us $150. While we’ll still splurge on the occasional restaurant challenge and hope to one day make enough money from this to feature more restaurant menus for y’all, we’ve gotta ball on a budget until that day comes.'
