food. drink. bodies.

I feel like I need to eat a Mars bar.

My eating patterns are all over the place. Always have been to tell the truth. I think because as a child, after a certain age, I've never had a steady pattern to work too. Parents were always busy, so my brother and I pretty much fended for ourselves...although I remember once when we were quite young my brother and I finally plucking up courage to go and find my mother and say 'Mum, are we getting any dinner tonight?'...cos it was after 10pm and we hadn't eaten since school lunch.

Now I eat my breakfast (muesli) at 10am, when we have a 20 min break at work. Although I don't always feel like eating by then, so sometimes just have a mug of tea.

Then I have a cheese sandwich at 1, and another mug of tea.

Then I get home, and sometimes have a snack, sometimes not.

And then dinner at around 9/9:30 (11...yeah, well, I get distracted)

But I've just figured out that in the last three days all I've drunk is 9 cups of tea. (I've never drunk much either, and the whole 8 glasses of water per day would make me *explode*, so...no way. But I do try to have a decent fluid intake, I always have water with me, I just don't get thirsty.

So...Mars bar or not? Trying to be good and not eat chocolate...but...hmmm.
