Activity: the usual work (seated but for the printer runs) and a truckload of packaging (definitely not seated). Ouch.
Thoughts: ICK, Fat Fast! Didn't hold to the parameters as tightly as I would have liked... ate that breakfast before thinking... then again, I do subscribe to the GO-Diet theory, about the carbs in fermented products being about half that declared on the labels (that carbs-by-difference labelling issue).

Activity: Saturday chores, running around all day, not much sitting; nothing formal.
Thoughts: I'm really stuffed and it's been a long week... BUT I think the main value in the calorie boost days is the simplicity (meat & veg), with a secondary bonus of high calories tho I don't think they need to be THIS high (at 13X) unless one is somewhere near goal. I don't like feeling this stuffed and, post-study, will probably go with 13XGoalWeight rather than CurrentWeight.

Thoughts: Just so regularly hungry today (maybe I wasn't drinking enough water?); feeling a bit of a wind-up for the coming week, may be my usual anxiety reaction, trying to sooth it with food... heck, both of these things trigger "hunger" in me. Be interesting to see what happens (and I better get a grip on this anxiety and have a water bottle in one hand at all times!)
