How Many Calories Does Michael Phelps Eat?
by J. Foster
According to the NY Post, the Olympic swimming feeling eats… 12,000 calories per day.
Here’s what a days food intake looks like:
…three fried-egg sandwiches loaded by cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise.
He follows that up with two cups of coffee, a five-egg omelet, a bowl of grits, three slices of French toast topped with powdered sugar and three chocolate-chip pancakes.
At luncheon, Phelps gobbles up a pound of enriched pasta and two large ham and cheese sandwiches slathered with mayo on white bread - capping off the meal by means of chugging about 1,000 calories worth of energy drinks.
For dinner, Phelps really loads up on the carbs - that which he needs to give him plenty of energy for his five-hours-a-day, six-days-a-week regimen - with a pound of pasta and an entire pizza.
Apparently he “washes all that down with another 1,000 calories worth of energy drinks”.
