A silent "what I eat in a day" video with on-screen text labelling each meal. The Borsec water suggests it was filmed in Romania. Breakfast is a cottage cheese bowl in a plastic container. It has a pink-purple layer underneath and is topped with banana, granola, freeze-dried raspberries and peanuts. Lunch is from a cafeteria: an orange vegetable or tomato soup, mashed potatoes, and three breaded fried meatballs with tomato sauce, plus bottled mineral water. A slice of honey cake (medovik), eaten from a takeaway box outdoors, is the snack. Dinner is a crusty roll filled with ham or turkey, roasted red pepper, pesto and a white cheese spread, followed by a Sportyfeel coconut protein bar.
