Thanks man, anyone have any idea what the options are for breakfast? And what about snacks during the day and dessert?

Snacking throughout the day is a habit you want to break before you ship.

Breakfast had stuff like pancakes, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns, biscuit and gravy etc, also cereal/oatmeal and lots of fruits and yogurt.

No snacks.

Dessert'll depend on the day (sometimes more fruit or yogurt, sometimes cookies, ice cream only on sundays, there was pie for Christmas), but your RDCs may yell at you for eating it. In my div the people who had passed a PFA were given free rein, anyone else would be seriously guilt tripped if they asked for dessert.

Thanks guys, I still think SEAL candidates should get more snacks and exercise but whatever....they think losing mass and fitness is a good idea.

While I agree that the meal system at bootcamp is overall somewhat detrimental to one's health, at the same time:

a) It's only 2 months for most people. (I personally had the privilege of being there for 4.)
b) Bootcamp's primary goal is not to make you as fit as possible. Its primary goal is to make you a sailor, which requires some discipline, team spirit, and sacrifices.

If you have a root canal going in and don't tell them about it, will you be kicked out?

It's possible. You might want to tell them because you're gonna get checked out by dental during p-days and they will find out about it either way.
