For breakfast this morning I had my usual cup of orange juice to start my day. I was able to get an apple as well, but decided not to eat it in case I'd get really hungry.
For lunch, I had that leftover salad from yesterday.
During lunch, I also came to the decision that leftover food from people would be now banned from my diet. It's at the point now where this food experiment has become more of a leftover diet rather than a chiat diet.
So with that, here are the updated rules:
1. No purchasing food or beverages of any kind. Chiat's cafeteria and vending machines included.
2. No hand-outs from anyone, even if they are legitimate leftovers
3. Tips to where food might be is acceptable so long as no food is physically broughten to me.
4. Water is the only exception to the Chiat Diet.
5. Storing food for later is acceptable.
6. Food from Chiat trash cans is fair game.
7. Food from Chiat refrigerators is acceptable as long as it isn't stolen.
8. Food provided from any off campus shoots is acceptable (they're still technically provided by Chiat.)
9. Food from other companies within Chiat's wall are acceptable (VBE, OMD.)
10. Food from MAL is acceptable (although they aren't within Chiat's walls and no longer technically a part of Chiat, they still share with us, and we still share with them.)
11. Food provided from client lunches and dinners are acceptable.
12. Food from celebrations such as birthdays, congratulatory, welcoming or going away parties is acceptable as long as it's within chiat.
With the new changes to the rules, scavenging around the office becomes more important than ever. After lunch, I was given a tip that there was some leftover food in VBE. I'm saving my findings for tomorrow, but I think this may be the first legitimate serving of vegetables I've had in a week. Yes, I've had salads; but eating lettuce is basically like eating water.
Lunch wasn't super filling, so later in the afternoon I had some popcorn to snack on. But as it turned out, that popcorn also ended up being my dinner for the evening.
