Olympics #2

Can you imagine eating 12,000 calories per day? Can you imagine being required to do that? US Olympic swimming hero Michael Phelps averages 12,000 calories per day while he is in training. That’s how much fuel his body needs just to keep going at that pace. Phelps eats between four and six times as much as most folks do. The point? The next time I’m accused of overeating, I’ll just say I’m prepping for the Olympics. Phelps and I are in such similar shape, that I’m sure no one would question it. What a deal – wish I had thought of this years ago!
