You ate 4,500 calories and 229 grams of fat today

Figured I'd inform you once it was too late ;-)  What you "should" be eating each day depends on your size, your lifestyle (exercise) etc., so it's nearly impossible to find overall recommended guidelines without specific data about who you are, but... what I found seemed to suggest that women should eat around 2000 calories a day (maybe a bit less) and men around 2400 (but again both of these depends on your height, etc).  So you'll eat about twice the calories in one meal that you should be having for the entire day.  As for fat, what I found seemed to talk of between 45g and 80g of fat a day being what's recommended (again, it depends on a lot of things). So that's anywhere from nearly 3x to 5x your recommended daily fat intake.

Okay, time for that midnight snack!
