I'm turning into chinese food! Food diary Wednesday 30th July 2008

After Tuesday night's Chinese all you can eat buffet (which was lush) I could easily live without Chinese food for a little while. I wonder if everyone is like that? Every now and then I really fancy, say, a McDonalds, have one and really enjoy it. But then I can't face one for a few weeks/months!

So, yesterday's plan was as follows. It was going to be a mix to max day:

Breakfast: 2 alpen light bars (heb1)
Lunch: salad, dressing (5), lemon and herb cous cous
Tea: salad, dressing (5), croutons (5), coriander and lime chicken fillets
Snacks: muller light, fruit salad

But one my oldest friends (as in I've been friends with her since 1992, not that she's old, well she's the same age as me!) texted to ask if she could come over for a chinese. We keep arranging to meet and then other things get in the way. I really wanted to catch up with her so she came over for a chinese.

So here's the actual food diary for yesterday:

Breakfast: 2 alpen light bars (heb1)
Lunch: salad, dressing (5), lemon and herb cous cous
Tea: vegetable chow mein (5), prawn crackers (10)
Snacks: muller light, fruit salad

Not bad at all really, and the chinese was lush!

Oh no! Food diary Tuesday 29th July 2008

It was all going so well, I was even working from home and hadn't given in to any chocolate related temptations! Then the phone call came - "do you want to go to the chinese before we go to the cinema tonight?" I just couldn't say no, I mean, what would I do, sit in the car while the other 3 enjoyed a chinese all you can eat buffet?

So yesterday's red day plan, which was...

Breakfast - bacon, syn free sausages, beans (heb1)
Lunch - cheese (hea1 & 2) on toast (heb2), lea and perrins, strawberries
Tea - lime and coriander chicken mini fillets (1.5), salad with croutons and dressing (10.5)

Became this...

Breakfast - bacon, syn free sausages, beans (heb1)
Lunch - cheese (hea1 & 2) on toast (heb2), lea and perrins, strawberries
Tea - all you can eat chinese buffet, including prawn crackers, chow mein, lemon chicken (not in batter though), onion rings (in batter), crispy seaweed, crispy chilli chicken, ice cream, syrup, chocolate fountain (marshmallow, mango, melon), glass of merlot...

Oh well, never mind. That's what I thought until my best friend just texted me to ask if she could come round tonight for a chinese takeaway. Here we go again...!
