Food Diary Day 3

Sooooooooooooooo hot. But luckily the aircon was working a bit better than it was yesterday so between that and the fan I had blowing straight at me, I was pleasant today.
I was also wearing a dress, I guess that helped. It’s the dress that all of us bought in Perth! The triplets dress hahaha. I got lots of compliments on it. Unfortunately I wore my red shoes to match and my feet felt like they were swathed in a gazillion layers, practically like they were in casts. Maybe that’s how the ladies with their bound feet in olden day China felt during summer?
I made a big mistake this morning though. After I’d put on my dress I looked down at my legs and thought “Oh no, hair removal needed!” but I was pressed for time so instead of epilating like normal I decided to shave. GM was in the shower so I decided to skip the water and soap part and do a DRY shave. Never ever do a dry shave. My legs started getting all tingly and there were these long red scratched stripes up and down my legs where the razor had been and at other bits I had razor rash! I was late catching my train though so I left the house with my legs looking like they’d been scratching posts for the neighbourhood cats. Luckily by the time I got out to Victoria the redness had subsided somewhat and even though it was still visible nobody at work seemed to notice! Phew.
Perhaps I should call this food diary series “The Perils of P-T”. I seem to have a disaster story for you everyday!
Food Diary Day 3
Snack – One banana
Lunch – Salad of hot and spicy grilled chicken breast with cucumber slices, little cherry tomatoes, olives and sundried tomatoes on a bed of raw spinach. This is pretty much the same salad as the one I had yesterday only I didn’t have time to wilt the spinach last night so I decided to have it raw instead. I have to say raw spinach is a bitch to eat with just a fork and no knife to fold it into manageable mouthfuls. Some spinach leaves are big! I had to open my mouth really huge to stuff the forkfuls in, so embarrassing in the office. I was ducking my head really low everytime I had a fresh forkful in the hope that perhaps no one could see. Also, at one forkful a leaf was in an odd position and the stalk went up my nostril! That was really embarrassing.
Dinner - Rice with veggies, fried fish, vinegar spareribs and white fungus with pork soup.
Dessert – Mini strawberry cornetto!!! (; _ ;)
Snack - Little pack wasabi green peas! This one was GM’s fault. He said he wanted some so I said “Okay we share” and opened it, ate some, offered him some and he said he didn’t want any because he’s on a diet!!! So evil!
Drink – Two bowls white fungus and pork soup
Drink – Peppermint tea
Drink - Water
Exercise
None!
