Day 2: 8th April

Today was a little more difficult but still kept to 1398 calories and just under 5kgs of carbon (reworked numbers), salt was OK, fruit & Veg portions at 6.1 had great but very small piece of pan fried sea bass (hoping “Finest” is line caught): certainly a little more real food).

I’m going to have to add black pepper & sea salt at end of week? Today I’ve had a pinch of salt & a couple of lots of black pepper
