A 'what I eat in a day' at a corporate office in Dubai, with a time label for each item. She starts with apple cider vinegar in water in the car at 8:45 and has a jar of overnight oats with chia at her desk at 9:35. Her snacks are dried amla pieces at 12:30 and a small tub of soaked almonds and cashews at 1:00. Lunch at 3:00 is paneer paratha with achaar (Indian pickle), eaten from foil. She drinks from a glass water bottle through the day and the 4:30 label says 3 L in total.
