I had a short changeover today, which means I finished work at 9:30 last night and started at 7AM today. Including getting out late, public transport, and giving a friend advice when I got home (at 11 PM), there was not much sleep to be had.
Fortunately, I repackaged and packed today's food ahead of time, so I only had to grab my bag and leave. I had breakfast (same as yesterday: 2 Weetbix, a handful of Coles' light muesli, a couple of spoonsful each of low fat yoghurt and stewed rhubarb/raspberries) when I got to work, then during my first break had a vegetable frittata and a toasted cheese sandwich on multigrain - it was supposed to come with mustard but that wasn't supplied, so I substituted some of the last of a caramelised onion relish from the fridge. At lunch I tasty Hoisin beef noodles, a fruit cup, dried apricots and a biscuit.
I went out for dinner with friends, and faced my first fully non-Lite'n'Easy meal (breakfast on Sunday was, except for the vodka/juice, the same as a provided breakfast would be). It was an Italian restaurant, and I didn't exactly fall wholly off the diet wagon but I certainly ate more than if I'd had the Lite'n'Easy meal in my freezer - delicious ravioli filled with pureed blue swimmer crab and prawn with vermouth and cream sauce, followed by just under half a shared chocolate mousse on a thin sponge. It was all delicious, I thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful, and though I was replete I didn't feel stuffed. I should have skipped the garlic pizza but stopped at one piece, and only drank water.
I'm weighing in tomorrow, so we'll see then how much damage dinner done. In any case I can't have gained. Surely. - Alex
