Breakfast: Coffee while waiting for eggs, bacon, toast, and water.

SI: Fruits...especially apples and pineapple.

Lunch SI: Ham or turkey sammich, chips, and maybe a cookie or two.

Dinner: Some substantial meat like a cheeseburger or steak, fries, and beer.

And, it goes without saying...plenty of fluids thru the day...with plenty of fluids thru the wetsuit.

Between dives -- fruit, grilled chicken or steak, chicken salad from Eatzi's, slice of cheese, pb&j sandwich on whole grain rustic bread, raisins, hot soup with a dash of cayenne when it's cold to help warm up

After diving -- El Nogalitos carne asada with lots of pico de gallo or some other restaurant

Drinking plenty of water all day. Tank air dries me out
