It would take some trying to get 8200 calories in one day. You would have to go out of your way to eat junk, and keep a constant flow of it. That is way too many cal's. I think it might be a bug in the system or simply misread. Try it again.

Yea, I think it is still too much. 5'1"/112 is pretty small. I'm not sure what you would do with 3200 calories. I'm 5'10"/166 and don't eat 3200 cals. I still think it's a miscalculation. I have read a few times from different people that the calorie recommendations have seemed a bit out of whack.
