    If I swam 5 hours a day for training I would certainly eat that many calories a day too!

    Lunch: 1 pound pasta, 2 ham and cheese sandwiches, energy drink (1,000 calorie)

    Dinner: 1 pound pasta, 1 large pizza, energy drink (1,000 calorie)

    ONE POUND OF PASTA?
    I'd puke for sure.
    ONE LARGE PIZZA PLUS ONE POUND OF PASTA.
    Double puke.

    My husband was a swimmer in high school and they'd go to Cici's Pizza Buffet to carbo load on pizza and pasta before swim meets too.

    OK, I'm usually not the superficial type, but the entire team celebrating their team's victory in the relay with their suits um. . .low. Damn. Just. damn.:noway:
