when ever you are feeling like a pig or a glutton, pause for a moment and just remember what swimming god Phelps eats in a day.

Breakfast -- — three fried egg sandwiches with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions, and mayo
— one five-egg omelets
— a bowl of grits
— three slices of French toast with powdered sugar
— three chocolate chip pancakes
— two cups of coffee

Lunch -- 1,000 calories worth of energy drinks, one pound of pasta with tomato sauce and two large ham and cheese sandwiches (with mayo) on white bread.

Dinner -- six to eight slices of pizza, another pound of pasta with tomato sauce, and 1,000 calories of energy drinks.

That'll work for now...shit he needs it for that much swimming. But let him quit swimming and still eat like that for a year or so. Now THAT would be funny.

After his swimming career is over he plans to conquer the world of Sumo Wrestling...

haha, that would be the coolest career change EVER!

he might have a bright future in eating contests...lol

but he only eats that much while training/competing.

aw hell yeah, if he did that normally...jesus...he'd gain 75 lbs in like two months. Not to mention he be shitting every 10 minutes....

yeah they showed this on the today show or some shit the other day.... a freakin pound of pasta...that makes my tummy hurt just thinking about it
