At least I'm an Olympic contender in dietary terms...

Phatty Phelps, they'll call him.

I believe the calorific intake but not so sure about the form some of it takes. Pizza- every night? Fried eggs for breakfast? I know he burns it off but...Methinks the journalists might be over simplifying - I know, fancy that!

Pro cyclists tend to have a pretty hearty appetite but I don't reckon too many DS's would allow fried egg butties and pizza on the daily menu.

Wonder how much time he spends on the bog everyday!

Especially with regard to how much time he spends in the pool - all that exertion on the stomach muscles, one lapse of concentration and he'll be getting the red card from the lifeguard chappy at the side of the pool!

some idiot dietrician wants him to quit the egg yolks and eat more fruit and salads god save us from ijits.
How is that rubbish going to fuel the intense activity he is doing ??? blimey I used to eat three times what Phelps eats when I was his age. I'd eat 2x lamb chops chips onion rings tomatoes mushrooms and fried bread cooked in a deep fat fryer as a supper before going to bed .

The biggest exercise that dietrician is ever likely to have done is exercise her mouth

I used to eat that much as well a few years ago. Mind you, I was a fat bastard back then...

The masking agents don't work so well with fried egg butties.

I was speaking to a colleague t'other day about this. He used to be a Royal Marine PTI Sergeant and said he would easily eat just as much as Phelps in a day, including all the fried foods and steaks and pizza, etc. He said he had never been fitter...he's a fat bastard now, like

Bet you didn't say that to his face!

...you mean 'orrible little man noodley

...you mean 'orrible little man noodley

I think the phrase he uses is 'orrible little scrote

and no Dayvo, I did not tell him that to his face. I'm fast but have to sit down sometimes... He'd use stealth Marine tactics to disguise himself as a desk then stab me to death with his finger or something like that

Hmmm... hopefully not his, er, stiffy!

One can only hope he gets serious diet advice once his career begins to taper off.
