Preoccupied

I was so busy and absorbed today at work that---- I forgot to eat lunch! I'm not sure that has ever happened before. I'm normally so obsessed and focussed on what I am eating that this is astounding to me. Even more astounding, I was home and thinking about dinner before I even realized it, in spite of stomach rumblings and other cues.

I had a satisfying breakfast (leftover bacon and chard). I took a brief walk at lunchtime (the giant heat has broken slightly) and when I got back to my desk, I decided to make some phone calls first. And during that, my phone gave me a buzz to make sure I had logged my lunch into the WW tracking system. "Yeah, yeah, I'll get to it" I thought. Then, I was hungry in the late afternoon and regretted not having brought a snack. But my lunch was there in the fridge across the hall, all nicely packed and ready for the microwave. "I wish I had some nuts" I thought around 4 pm. "Oh well, I'll just go fill up my water glass from the cooler.". And never once thought about that lunch. At least it's there for tomorrow.

I'm well under my daily points. Probably not a good idea to try to reach my cap by filling up on chocolate now!
