jury duty

krisann27

so . . . I have jury duty today, and I'm stressed because I don't know where/when/what I'll be able to eat. We're not allowed to bring food with us. Ideas?

Deep breaths and the knowledge that, no matter how slim the pickings are, one day can't ruin your entire diet? Sorry that I don't have anything more helpful to add.

I've done jury duty twice. The first one they just released us to go get our own meals. The second time they took us to a restaurant as a group. I don't know which is more common, but either way it shouldn't be too hard to make half-way decent choices. Just log your calories as best you can when you're done for the day and try not to stress about it. As bathsheba says, even if you have a bad day, it's still just one day.

And BTW, the guy is guilty, send him down!

Thanks all! There were vending machines in the jury selection room and I bought some Baked Lays as a snack . . . and I didn't get picked for any jury, so I was released at 1 ish and was able to come home for lunch!
