Thoughts


* I always find it interesting how much more disciplined a food log makes me. I try to be meticulous in logging absolutely everything I eat to the point that I reach into the fridge for, say, the milk, and see a pack of open sausages or some scraps of leftover chicken and as much as I want it, I resist on the basis that it would have to go on the log. As long as you are absolutely, ruthlessly honest, it is a fantastic tool for dietary management.

 

* A harder day today. My mood is noticeably lower, a simmering anger just below the surface driven by a combination of factors, principle among them the recurring theme of disenchantment at my professional development. The result; I want to eat filth. The Go Ahead bars seemed a reasonable post lunch compromise. The food log will be important today.
