A long and busy day today - work in the office, Jo arrived with her kitten, and I spent the evening writing something about Communication Skills.
And I ate:
muesli
a large chunk of white cabbage
an apple
two slices of toast and raspberry jam
roast chicken, roast potatoes, sprouts, peas and sweetcorn
a smallish piece of lemon cake
Verdict: Could be worse - - but could be better too!

STILL hungry AGAIN
I was in the office for most of today. Still hungry, though.
And I ate:
muesli
a nectarine
two slices of wholemeal bread and jam
three digestive biscuits
a large chunk of white cabbage
four small sausages with baked beans and new potatoes
a bowl of raspberries with evaporated milk
an orange
some fresh peas
a bowl of Special K
Verdict: Fruit and veg fine - - too much of everything else!

Art Market and Meeting
I've missed a few days of this blog partly because of Gareth coming out of hospital - - I just seemed busy with other things.
I had a great steak in London on Thursday, a really enjoyable Chinese takeaway of an assorted appetiser on Friday and yesterday I had lunch at a cafe, Timoney's - - roast beef sandwich with onions and really great chips.
But back to today:
muesli (sugar free Alpen)
banana
apple
two slices of wholemeal toast and butter with a boiled egg
three digestive biscuits
four small sausages and some baked beans
a large slice of fruit tart with confectioner's custard (NOOOOOOOOOO!)
an orange
some fresh peas (I love these!)
a large chunk of white cabbage
Verdict: Fruit tart is NOT one of your five a day, Daphne! Apart from that, not too bad.

To the Solicitor's
To the solicitor's this morning to sort out probate - - really, really not fun.
And I ate:
muesli
a large lump of raw white cabbage
two raw carrots
two slices of wholemeal bread and jam
two lemon and raisin pancakes (small!)
fish fingers, oven chips and peas
an apple
strawberries and evaporated milk
an orange
Verdict: Again, fine on the fruit and veg - - too much fat and sugar. I let my blood sugar get too low before lunch and hence ate too much.
