<p class="">According to the nutritionist for the Colts, the ranges of calories needed during camp are:

<p class="">Lose Weight - 13-17 calories per pound

<p class="">Maintain Weight - 17-20 kcal./lb.

<p class="">Add Weight - 20-25 kcal./lb.

<p class="">Using a 15 kcal./lb. formula for DJ Fluker, that indicates a daily calorie intake of 5,100.

<p class="">This is a sample daily meal plan for consuming 5,000 calories in a day:

<p class="">Breakfast:  4 Whole Eggs, Turkey Sausage or Lean Ham, Protein Powder - 2 scoops, Skim Milk 2% - 12 ounces, Banana, Natural Peanut Butter - 1 tablespoon, 1 cup of Oatmeal (cooked)

<p class="">Lunch:  Top Sirloin Steak - 12 ounces, Brown Rice - 2 cups, Sweet Potato, Protein Powder - 2 scoops, Skim Milk 2% - 12 ounces, Natural Peanut Butter - 1 tablespoon

<p class="">Dinner:  Lean Ground Beef - 7% fat - 8 oz., 1 cup of Whole Wheat Pasta, sauce, Grilled Salmon - 10 oz., Brown Rice - 2 Cups, Veggies/Small Salad

<p class="">That will give the big guy a little wiggle room (100-200 calories) for an evening snack; probably frozen yogurt (with toppings) or a fruit tart.
