IF - TOTAL Carbs


Ok - I don't know if you guys are going to believe me, but I CAN EAT 9 donuts (Krispy Kreme Original Glazed), 1 bowl of cereal (Cinnamon Oatmeal), 3 Filipino Sweet Rice Cakes, and a glass of Milk – all in one sitting. I am 5ft 1" tall and weigh 101 lbs and I did this because my brother double-dared me and said I was a teenie sissy girl.....Yup, after that he stopped calling me a sissy. :)

Wow! Your metabolism must be burning that stuff up like crazy. Probably from all the energy you put into coming up with illustrations for IF.
Another great one you've done here....

Love the carbs. That gives me a great idea for my new illustration. You always have such fun stuff.

Cool Michelle! A great illustration to commemorate an amazing feat.

Donuts and cereal are the foundation of breakfast. That reminds me of that cereal that was mini donuts with tiny frostings. I can't find that cereal anymore so I assume it was discontinued, or that I dreamt it, and the mini donuts never really existed.

I especially can't imagine someone as petit as you eating all that, in one sitting, plus a glass of milk, but it's hard to believe anyone could-amazing!
I love the rendering of this double-dare challenge, lots of fun to see.
