Well, I promised I'd write up what I've eaten since the Saturday I gave up Route to Management. Here you go. Please let me know what you think. I have no idea whether it's too much, too little, not enough protein (I imagine so, sigh) etc. I started off not writing the times when I ate but as the days go on I started jotting down times too.
