Veg risotto microwave meal at about 1.30am
Pack of ready salted crisps and a jaffa cake at about 6am
Slice of white toast buttered at about 9.30am
Between waking up at 3.15pm and now I have eaten a dark choc hobnob and 3 slices of olive bread
Will have pasta with roasted butternut squash, green beans and cherry tomatoes at about 5.30
Probably several more chocolate biscuits (hobnobs and/ or jaffa cakes to get me through until midnight at work, then it counts as a different day)
Drank water and tea. I don't even like tea but might well need more cups to get through this.
