Just got done watching Man v Food nation and I've decided its about time to join the nation. The only food challenge we got around here is an 8lb pizza challenge. I get 100$ plus a t-shirt if i eat in under an hour. Supposedly only 3 ppl have done but considering this is a smallish town that's not that big of a deal.
So any tips or advice on toppings to help me take down this monster??? Any combo of toppings as long as it adds up to be 8lbs

Im no expert, but I hear ppl eat heads of lettuce/drink a $hitload of water the night before to temporarily expand the stomach.

8lbs is an immense challenge. Unless you are a pro eater you probably aren't going to be able to finish it. I've done a 5lb challenge and could not have finished more than another half pound.
If you can eat 3 large 16" pizzas then you can probably do it.

^^Yea the more I think about the size the more I realize how big it actually is but hey I got to at least try. Prolly going to do lots of cardio that morning and make sure it's after leg workout. Then I'll break my fast with the challenge

Yeah, worth a try if you've got the cash. Good luck!

8lbs isn't an outrageous amount of food, but it's the time limit that makes it tough. when I am IF'ing my dinners are routinely 6-7+ pounds of food, and I'm usually not uncomfortably full afterward...and I'm not a big guy.
