Fast food - sure when you are young & use 8,000 cals. a day !!!!!!

... others just use a combination of delightful foods with veggies .... . This made me laugh. I find fast food delightful. I find fruits and veggies delightful too.

Fast food - sure when you are young & use 8,000 cals. a day !!!!!! I am old and eat fast food every day. ;)

I am old and eat fast food every day. ;) Don't forget....fast too. ps. how old are you?

Don't forget....fast too. ps. how old are you? 33 Compared to some, young. Compared to those that burn 8kcal/day, old. :)

Are there any publications or anyway to find out what the diets are like for Dana Vollmer, Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, etc.? I know some people on this board eat fast food a couple times a week and others just use a combination of delightful foods with veggies from my reading of past threads. Thank you for your responses. It doesn't matter what they do. Michael Phelps eats a lot of "junk" food, but he needs it for his training volume. You should figure out what to eat so that you can be a successful swimmer.

Check out Myplate.gov and adjust the quantity according to the amount of workout you do per week.

Fast food - sure when you are young & use 8,000 cals. a day !!!!!! Daily!! Sometimes a couple of times daily. Soooo good, and so much easier than making a sandwich at home to take to work.
