Eat like a gold medalist

Michael Phelps says he eats 8,000-10,000 calories a day. Yeah, I'm jealous too. WebMD breaks it down, for anyone else wanting to try the Olympic Diet. Caution: May result in obesity, or winning multiple gold medals in world record beating time.

I will be back with more news from the first in-service days of the year, and more, tomorrow.

Currently Watching: My own taped all-around gymnastics from last night. Don't tell me how it ends! (I already know. Yay, USA! USA!)

Did you get my e-mail? If not, check your junk mail filter. It's a good one!

Hey, Manda, shall we do a Phelps movie marathon a la Lord of the Rings? So, to parallel our meals of first breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, etc. we each eat 10,000 calories whilst watching old tapes of Phelps break records.

So, for breakfast, one bowl of grits (cereal), three fried-egg sandwiches with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise, two cups of coffee, an omelette, three slices of French toast and three chocolate-chip pancakes. Each. For Breakfast.

Somehow it doesn't sound as fun as Hobbit Food day...

No, not quite as fun. It sounds a bit nauseating!
