So like most of you, I'm totally glued to the TV watching the Olympics (with a very sick pug on my lap).  Michael Phelps - what can you say?  He's now a 3x gold medal holder for this Olympics alone...with more to come.  He's also set 3x world records this Olympics.  Oh, and let's face it ladies...he's delightful to look at.

I read this week that Michael swims at least 4 miles a day, everyday.  Um, I did 1800 meters (just over a milke for those of you who don't Get Moving in the pool) and I thought I was going to die.  He looks to take in 10,000 calories a day.

A typical breakfast for MP?  3 Sandwiches of fried eggs, lettuce, tomato, cheese, fried onions, and mayo. One omelete, a bowl of grits, 3 slices of french toast with powdered sugar, and wash that down with 3 chocolate chip pancakes.  Sounds delicious.
