Week 14, day 96

I've spent today with a pleasant muscle ache in my thighs and shoulders, after returning to working out yesterday - not enought to be uncomfortable, just enough to remind me that I did something physical. Not to much today, however - I walked a little, but only 4 x 10 minutes, and two legs of that were with company and far from as brisk as my usual stride.
Breakfast was porridge with a small handful of sultanas, topped by stewed raspberry and rhubarb, washed down with a mug of green tea. I ate out for lunch, chosing a vegetarian tart accompanied by three salads (cous-cous, Greek and green) and washed down with a pot of green tea - it was very nice but undoubtedly higher in fat and calories than optimal.
For dinner I planned to have a bowl of Asian-inspired chicked soup, which I made on the 2nd. Unfortunately, though the chicken had an expiration date of today, it smelled a little odd; I made up the soup, which was delicious, until my second or third piece of chicken - it tasted odd, so I sadly threw the remainder out.
Instead of my delicate soup I ended up having an omlette of two eggs, a little low-fat cheddar, a couple of diced cherry tomatoes, and some dried parsley and chives on a multigrain muffin. I washed it all down with a small glass of Kirmizi juice.
Later, feeling a little deprived, and trying to stay away for night duty on Thursday, I also had a mug of hot chocolate, made from low-fat milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon and about 50g of dark chocolate (70% cocoa) calletes. - Alex
