Note: this is what I'm actually eating, for better or for worse. Clearly, as the author of the Fiddle Diet, I know exactly how to eat to lose weight. This journal has two purposes: 1) to explore the ups and downs of weight and fluctuation as related to food 2) to be an accurate assessment of what I ate when my life is extremely busy and I'm working and don't have complete control of what I cook and eat. So this day wasn't a planned boost day and you can see that my weight gain the next day was affected. I also didn't eat enough fruit or drink enough water. And I usually have plain tea in the evenings and last night I had three giant mugs of tea with sugar. All fine and not a big deal, just be aware that this wouldn't be a day to follow as part of the losing weight plan.
