So, today has been a long and relatively uneventful day.
I've had a headache most of the day despite drinking bucket loads of water. I suppose this is unlikely to be related to the diet, but it will be interesting to see how it progresses from here.
My plan for dinner was reasonably straightforward, wait as late as possible, eat and then go to sleep. That continues to be the plan - I'm in bed as I write this - but dinner itself was more of a challenge than I had anticipated.
I had rice, half a can of meatballs and some mixed vegetables. I had hoped to have a flat bread or two with it as well but sadly the dough had got wet and from tests before the challenge I know no reasonable amount of flour will save it. At least there is a lesson in the flat bread dough, I made it at breakfast for lunch and dinner. Instead I'll make it at lunch for lunch and dinner.
But even more concerning than that is when I went to open the can of meatballs, I realised I had no idea where the tin opener was... That could have ended badly, but it showed up in the end.
If you're looking at the picture thinking it looks unappetising, you'd be very very right. It was quite unpleasant to eat. My hope is that as I get hungrier I'll understand the need to eat is greater than the struggle with the taste.
Tonight I go to bed hungry, not comparably to people living below the line everyday. But hungry enough to notice it, but I know I have enough food for tomorrow.
Saving Grace.
