Michael Phelps Huge Diet

For the longest time I’ve been telling my friend to stop eating all that junk food as he likes, loads of bread, sweets, chocolates, coffee and even greasy potato chips.

Today the BBC ran a report on Michael Phelps diet at the Olympics, can you believe this guy eats 10000 calories a day?

His breakfast contains, three fried egg sandwiches; cheese; tomatoes; lettuce; fried onions; mayonnaise; three chocolate-chip pancakes; five-egg omelette; three sugar-coated slices of French toast; bowl of grits; two cups of coffee

Then for lunch he has half-kilogram (one pound) of enriched pasta; two large ham and cheese sandwiches with mayonnaise on white bread; energy drinks

And for dinner, half-kilogram of pasta, with carbonara sauce; large pizza; energy drinks.

Apparently the white bread and pasta is converted to energy almost immediately and he needs that to keep winning medal after medal whereas foods with more fat in them take much longer to digest and release their energy over a longer period of time.

Now how do I make sure my friend doesn’t read this BBC story otherwise I won’t hear the end of it.
