Friday
Breakfast 7:30 2 weetbix, 1C lowfat soy milk, 1/3 C tinned peaches. 1 slice wholemeal toast with plum and cinnamon jam. Boiled egg. 2 C coffee with 40 ml Hilo milk.
Picnic lunch 1:00: 1 ¼ “Brunchons.” 1x “Sweetcorn and corn”, 1/4 x “Potato, leek and sour cream”. I thought these teeny rectangular loaf shaped things were a kind of savoury muffin when I hurriedly bought them at the bakery to make an instant picnic lunch. After I ate one I figured they are actually brioches. Delicious, but tasting like they contain too much fat. (They were about 2" x 2 1/2" x 1 1/2" - not big but probably big if they were brioches!)
Lots of snow peas. 1 apple. 1 C coffee with milk.
Snack: 5:00 ¾ brunchon.
Dinner/nibbles at quiz night 7:30 on: Proably 50-60 gm light feta cheese. Very little piece of ordinary camembert. Very little piece of yummy crumbly cheese (stilton?).Carrots, zucchini, snowpeas, mushrooms, capsicum. ½ tspn light french onion dip. A little salsa. About 5 cornchip's worth of little pieces of broken corn chips (containing no calories of course, because we all know what happens to calories when food is broken). 1 Can Johnny Walker and coke. 4-5 cans diet coke.
Exercise: No. Busy day, running from place to place. I am still working on how to fit the exercise into overly busy days. The thing that would have worked would have been an earlier night and earlier morning. It wouldn't even have had to be early, just better organized and earlier.
Great day though, picnic, haircut, doctor's visit, and quiz night. Lots of fun for me.
I liked my hair. I had hopes of a new avvie from it, but my camera broke and the photo booth at the shopping centre is not plugged in! I wish they would finish retiling that place! My hair wouldn't look different to now in an avvie actually, though in RL it will be a lot better. I just am ready to see a new picture.
The doctor called me “skinny”! He he. Well we hadn't met before and maybe he was buttering me up. It was kind of nice that I am sufficiently not fat for him to think he could get away with it. I am still obese and reminded him of that, though I also told him I had already lost quite a lot of weight. I was trying to find out what my last fasting blood sugar was to compare it with the 5.4 I got this week. It was 5.9. Anyway that is an improvement but not that great still. I hope losing more fat helps bring it down further. That doctor was “passionate” (his word), “unusually talkative” (mine), about trying to avoid type II diabetes, and recommended I read a book by Dr J. Tickel called The Great Australian Diet. I might. For all I know his book will tell me to do exactly what I am already doing, seeing as this new doctor didn't bother to find out what that was before he used up a half hour of my time talking at me!! Never mind. There is a lot to be said for having doctors who go out of their way to give more help than they're asked for.
The quiz night was a blast. I have been told they're not necessarily held elsewhere. It's a kind of fund raiser in which tables of people compete against each other to see which table can get the most correct answers to sets of questions. Also there are side games and fund raising activities, drinking, eating and chatting. At this quiz night, which was a fund raiser for the girl's dance school, there was also lots of music and singing, a little dancing and a great deal of laughter. My table was composed partly of some friends I really care for and love to be with, and partly of a couple I'd heard of as exceptionally kind and who turned out to be outrageously funny attention seekers. My table didn't win, but my paper aeroplane went the second furthest and I won about $80-100 worth of cosmetics and other gifts in the mobile phone number bingo.

I hope your Sunday is a good one.
