Conference food....!!

Hi all,
I went to a very busy full on 3-day conference last week, at a university up country; it was all about business excellence and had a key-note presentation from Tim Bean, ironic as it turned out, who coaches executives on the benefits of keeping healthy.
Having lost nearly 30kg in 11 months of hard yakka, I did my best, I really did. I walked a cuppla miles each day to & from my digs, and picked all the healthy looking stuff from the buffets.....but when I got home I'd put on 4.8kg....from 84.8 to 89.6...so I am not at all pleased.
I can only surmise that the problem was that even though the food looked good and seemed OK, it was smothered in sugar.....
Anyone else out there has similar experiences?
Cheers
Ian
