We have another Shakespeare performance this evening, "Twelfth Night" (in Russian), but to save money and time we are not staying the night in Stratford on Avon... This means a 2 1/2 hour drive there for me, and a 2 1/2 hour drive back late at night. I am quite tired today, and worked in the garden this morning, and I'm feeling quite achy-shaky, as though I haven't eaten enough. Maybe I haven't. I've had a couple of days when the numbers in CoM are great, but I haven't felt enthused or satisfied by anything I've eaten - it's been eating for the sake of nutrition, and out of necessity. I don't feel as though it is has been eating that has nourished me in an emotional sense, and I need to work on that.
We have a table booked for dinner pre-theatre and right now I am trying to finish my enormous spinach lunch salad with yogurt, LLBY, mushrooms, and yellow pepper included in the CoM report below. So, once again, I know my nutrition is good, and actually the salad is delicious, but... I think I am just very tired.
Here is the crunch for today minus whatever ends up being pre-theatre dinner. I've left myself room for it.

I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling so tired and not quite right. I hope you start feeling better soon!
That's some impressive nutrition for 700 calories - what was your breakfast?
Hope you're feeling better.
In general, when I am feeling weak-ish, the answer is always: protein and wine. Protein first, wine later.
And some unsaturated fat.
If I have a drive to do and am feeling shaky, I'll eat 10 g almonds for the road, or a megamuffin. That helps A LOT.

Hello both... I am feeling much less blah this morning, but it's only 7am. The good thing about being so low on calories before dinner was that I could enjoy what I ate without the slightest worry about it, and I think that's what I needed. I didn't feel deprived, or like a pig. (It helps that the portions in Lambs are tiny, too).
April - I'd already eaten my 20g almonds! :-( But I had the wine with dinner - Italian Sauvignon. Yum.
Emily - I think it was a bit of a cheaty day to get the numbers that good. Breakfast was 20g Kelloggs All Bran Fibre Plus and 20g Grapenuts, pumpkin seeds, a brazilnut and almonds; I also ate 150g Total 0%, 100g strawberries, 200g spinach, 250g mushrooms, 100g broccoli (BIG SALAD), 7g LLBY to bump and complete the B's, a whole sweet yellow pepper (grilled), and had 250ml of my Alpro Soya Lite (again, fortified). And supplemented with Vit D.
