You will just have to have double portions of cake when you get back

Katy, glad you arrived ok. Shame about the cake (l'd have been sooo disappointed too). Good though you've been able to keep the CD bars. Have a terrific trip.

Hi all... quick check in... first work day done, & it was fab. It is SOOOO hot here!!! Had a walk along the harbour too before dark, which was good... exercise, kind of!
Food...
Brekky: berry lassi, bircher muesli, egg white omelette (!!!)
Snack: berry cheesecake (ate top part, left base)
lunch: green salad, 1 anzac biscuit
tea: apple, CD caramel bar
Hmmm... seem to be getting most of my cals early in day, but appetite is not huge as its so hot... main snag is avoiding cake/ biscuits which seem to be offered to me every other minute... making up for the cheese scone disaster back home! Another busy day tomorrow and a work dinner... eek.
Thanks for support & kind words, all! Hugs back... will go look thru threads and see what you've all been up to!

Brekky: berry lassi; bircher muesli; fresh fruit; egg white omelette.
Lunch: EEEK! Chinese meal business lunch... lots of veggie courses, small in size but they just kept coming... some seemed quite healthy and others were dumpling-like or deep-fried, which I found quite stressful. By the time rice came I couldn't eat much of it at all... felt really full. Really don't like the sensation of eating too much anymore.
Snack: latte
Tea: CD choc bar; apple
Felt quite anxious at the chinese meal at lunch, felt I couldn't easily refuse as colleagues here had made an effort to arrange a meal out they thought would suit me... but such a lot of food. They have commented that I 'don't eat much' yet I feel I am eating huge amounts. I feel full much faster now and if something doesn't taste really nice to me, I don't want to eat it 'for the sake of it' as I would have done once... However, that was my last CD bar eaten, after this I am on my own and the CD security blanket is gone. I do wish I was more in charge of my own meals, the business trip thing means there will be meals to negotiate where I will be out of my comfort zone... a bit of a test for so early on in maintenance. So will keep posting when I an to try to stay on track.
Hope you are all OK....

brekky: smoothie on plane
lunch: latte & mezze (things like artichoke & aubergine & pumpkin & pepper, + 1 piece of bread)
tea: eek. pasta ravioli & tomato salad. Small but felt very forbidden. (work meal)
Mon 18 May
brekky: bircher muesli & berry smoothie
lunch: green salad & pasta AGAIN. Not many veggie choices at all, & again, a work lunch. Eek.
snack: latte
tea: banana in hotel room
It doesn't look bad written down, but two lots of pasta just worries me. Anyway... whatever happens, happens. I will stay on track and keep pointing forwards... and Sydney is beautiful, I'd love to come back for a holiday one day! Will keep on keeping on...

See I knew you'd be doing good
I don't know how long you were on SS for but it always takes some getting used to food again. It sounds like you are trying to balance things as well as possible. Woot to you!
