Snacking is practically a requirement
Delish spoke to 14 Team USA competitors about their meal plans. Preferences vary widely, but most of these athletes have snacking and/or regular dessert consumption in common.
"As soon as we're off the ice or out of the gym we're replenishing and replacing those burned calories," ice dancer Evan Bates told Delish.
Another thing affecting these athletes' appetites: Nerves.
"When we're competing, just with the stress and nerves, I feel like my stomach shrinks and I can't eat as much during those few days. As soon as it's over I'm like, 'Give me a cheeseburger,'" Bates said.
