Well I have been reading through all of these posts and they are extremely informative on the swimming aspect, but was wondering if anyone has any recommendations/recipes for some great swimming food? Was thinking a nice chicken stir fry over rice. Not going on a diet and don't think I am dedicated enough to do the 6 small meals per day thing, just a regular 3 meals a day *** that pretty much cut out fast foods since I began 3 weeks ago.
Also, is it more important to have a meal before or after a workout? I always seem to be hungry coming out of the pool after a workout regardless of eating an hour before. Thanks in advance

After morning swim, I have a protein meal replacement, 12oz V-8, and a diet Dr Pepper. At 9:30 its a hard boiled egg. Lunch is a small meal usually left-overs (my favorite) or a salad with tuna or salmon on it, around 3pm is a hand full of almonds or other small snack. Home for a small dinner and 2 glasses of :wine: (doctors orders). No dessert. I might have a late night snack of fruit or yogurt.
