Hey Guys,
The other night, a few friends and I were watching a video on sportable.com. In this video, three guys take on the challenge of trying to eat Michael Phelps’ 12,000 calorie diet (which can be found here). Needless to say, we watched these 3 men fail horribly in their attempt. The way it was broken down was that each guy would take on one meal and they had one hour to finish the whole meal, or as much as possible. However, not one of them were able to finish a whole meal. The guy who was attempting to eat Phelps’ dinner ended up puking, and the guy who had the task of eating lunch threw up twice. After watching this horrible failure, we decided to try it ourselves, just to see what the big deal was.
Our line up was as follows:
Brian - Breakfast - 3 fried egg sandwiches, 5 egg omelet, 1 bowl of oatmeal, 3 pieces of french toast, 3 choc chip pancakes, and 2 cups of coffee
Greg - Lunch - 2 Large ham and cheese sandwiches and a pound of pasta, as well as 1000 calories worth of energy drinks
Joel - Dinner - An entire large pizza, a pound of pasta, and 1000 calories worth of energy drinks
We were all pretty confident that we could finish our meals so we videotaped our endeavor, Check it out to find out just how well we all did.

Haha, glad to see you guys took on the challenge and were smart enough not to use big shell pasta like I did. I enjoyed watching that because I knew exactly what was going through your heads when you had the blank stares. Worst food coma ever.

The funny thing is you all felt like you were gonna die, but Phelps complains he has trouble with HOLDING ONTO weight with this diet. Jeez. I hope he sees a doctor in about 10 years, or his metabolism’s gonna be completely messed up.

You guys are nuts! The video is hilarious, though, and I give you a lot of credit for trying! Greg, nice job on the website - extremely impressive! Hope you all had a good summer and all goes well back at school.
P.S. Brian, you do not need to be afraid to come over!

i passed out for about 5 hours after doing it. i think it was a tie, except we did throw up, especially me, but that’s the only thing that kept me alive. and i’m glad you picked up on my lingo while eating those hamsters.
