Today the driver dropped off two bags of food, since Right Bite is taking New Year's Day off. I got a little confused sorting it all, and ended up eating tomorrow night's Italian fish filet with risotto for lunch. As you can see, there was quite a lot of risotto. And the fish was awesome, if tiny. Oh well. I also got a brownie for a snack and I cannot explain how good it was. Good thing tomorrow's is home in my refridgerator or it would be down the hatch.
Last night I arrived home starving and "whoops" ate some baba ghanoush with pita bread. So although my dinner of beef with green beans & brown rice was good (as was the potato and leek soup) I wasn't really that hungry. The moral of the story? As Hala, the Right Bite nutritionist told me, don't get hungry. Also, with all this exercise I am doing (a boxing class and two spinning classes so far) I am pretty sure 1,200 calories a day is not enough.
More importantly though, on the strength of the first three days of this free week trial alone, I have decided I am going to sign up for three more weeks on my own dime. Yalla.
*Right Bite is furnishing the writer with seven days worth of meals and snacks for the purposes of this review.

Tips to stay safe during hot weather
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Avoid alcohol and caffeine, which can increase dehydration.
- Seek cool environments: Use air conditioning, fans, or visit community spaces with climate control.
- Limit outdoor activities: Avoid strenuous activity during peak heat. If outside, seek shade and wear a wide-brimmed hat.
- Dress appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose and light-coloured clothing to facilitate heat loss.
- Check on vulnerable people: Regularly check in on elderly neighbours, young children and those with health conditions.
- Home adaptations: Use blinds or curtains to block sunlight, avoid using ovens or stoves, and ventilate living spaces during cooler hours.
- Recognise heat illness: Learn the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke (dizziness, confusion, rapid pulse, nausea), and seek medical attention if symptoms occur.
