Day 85: Waiting for foodo
11:20am Tangy chickpeas with broccoli and cottage cheese
I think that sweet chilli sauce can make most things taste wonderful.

Soon after having this, I left for a meeting, taking the remaining chickpeas and broccoli with me in case I got hungry later.
12:50pm Innocent smoothie of pineapples, bananas and coconut (173 calories)
I got hungry on the train and had a smoothie instead of solid food.
I didn’t eat while I was out – I should have as I was ravenous when I got home (and after doing a little food shopping).
7:25pm Vegetarian wraps + pear + tea
I made two wraps on a normal dinner plate. I ate them quickly as I was too hungry to concentrate on savouring each bite.

Subsequently, I felt peckish and had the reduced-price wholemeal scone I’d bought on the way home.
