Olympic Chatter
I read in today's Washington Post that the Olympic swim god, Michael Phelps, has a hard time gaining weight. I guess he stands around 6'4' and weights 185 lbs. but would like to weigh over 200 lbs. When I found out that he is only 23 I thought to myself don't sweat it. Time will take care of your little problem.

J&J: As soon as Phelps gives up the swimming every day the weight will come on.
ReplyDeleteWhen we were watching tv last night, Phelps said that he's supposed to eat between 8000 and 10000 calories a day. Then they showed the high calorie, yummy looking food that he's "forced" to eat. Oh, if only I had the same problems.
