According to an ABC News article from 2016<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Health\/calories-americans-eat-thanksgiving\/story?id=43690796\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">average American consumes 3,000 calories<\/a> in a Thanksgiving dinner, and up to 4,500 calories when including drinks and desserts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To compare, here are the daily average caloric intakes for:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Average American (Business Insider, 2013): 3,600 calories<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Katie Ledecky (Spoon University\/ESPN, 2016): 3,100-3,500 calories<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Michael Phelps (USA Today, 2017): 8,000-10,000 calories<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ryan Murphy (GQ Magazine, 2017): 4,000-5,000 calories<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While <strong>Michael Phelps<\/strong> might have eaten the equivalent of two Thanksgiving meals a day in the prime of his training, these numbers indicate that the average American eats as much for Thanksgiving dinner as Olympic champion backstroker <strong>Ryan Murphy<\/strong> eats in a day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For most swimmers, eating this much, even in one sitting, won\u2019t constitute too drastic an issue. Based on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/diet-and-weight-loss\/calories-burned-in-30-minutes-of-leisure-and-routine-activities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">data by Harvard Medical School<\/a>,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0swimming for 30 minutes burns 180 calories for a 125-pound person, 223 calories for a 155-pound person, and 266 calories for a 185-pound person.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By this logic, a Thanksgiving meal can be completely burned off with 12.5 hours of general swimming or less. Most club and college swimmers will surpass this timeframe in less than a week of training. The rate of calories burned also goes up with added intensity in practices, quickening the process described in this data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This considered, the majority of swimmers don\u2019t need to monitor their caloric intake too closely this Thanksgiving. But for those trying to watch their weight or simply keep track of their calories, here is a collection of popular Thanksgiving dishes and their respective calories and nutritional values.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disclaimer: These dishes can be made in various ways, with different ingredients and portion sizes. Not all recipes include nutrition facts, but checking the internet or household cookbook for a specific recipe\u2019s calorie counts is a good place to start when looking for a more accurate estimate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Dark Meat Turkey (no skin)<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serving size: 100 grams (3 \u00bd
