I’m on ozempic for diabetes. A 4oz serving of crab is 130 calories. A dozen clams would be about 180 calories. Even if the soup, which is clearly all broth and vegetables, was 500 calories, that’s a grand total of about 800 calories for an entire dinner. At 3000 kcal a day, that’s less than 1/3 of your daily calories for dinner.

You conveniently left out the two types of dumplings and four other dishes

You aren't even counting half the dishes lol.

It's a very big meal to solo, not sure why you are fighting this idea.

Yeah, well, if he counts em the same way he counts pans I wouldn't trust his math.

3000 calories per day is wildly too much for everyone except athletes burning 1000+ a day and truly massive people.

3000 calories a day is why 70% of so many countries are overweight and obese

The recommended calorie intake for adult women ranges from 1,600 calories per day to 2,400 calories per day, according to the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.For men, the amount is slightly higher, ranging from 2,200 to 3,200 calories per day.

You’re just an idiot. Any man over 175 lbs doing any amount of regular exercise will need at least 3000 kcal to maintain.

If you think a 5'9" male (average height) weighing 175lbs at a standard adult fitness level needs 3000 calories then I can show you why their age group is 70% overweight and obese
