GAMD: All Meal Challenge

Right, the challenge was for the week of 25-30Oct, but I foresee my meals today will be basically the same, and I'll be busy tomorrow, so I'm posting this a day early.
Lunch: a Japanese set from the coffee shop: Beef and soft boiled egg
Dinner: leftover beef burger patties that Dad made the previous weekend, and cabbage
Lunch: tried a new dish (after 10+ years in the same place) XO sauce fried rice with Thai pork neck. Yummy but the XO sauce is a bit too spicy for me.
*** After lunch, I went to the dentist to fit my "appliance" and he also glued 2.... pins or something to my teeth to affix an elastic band. I'm trying to correct 2 of my back teeth. Since the pins were newly glued, it didn't affect me too much on this day.
Dinner: It's Austrian National Day, so we had Semolina Dumpling Soup, Wiener Schnitzel, and Apfelstrudel, with a sweet apple wine.
Lunch: Tomato Soup. It took me forever to eat the breads because the pin was just hurting my tongue so much, it was difficult to swallow. Funny how the braces and the appliance themselves don't hurt me at all.
Dinner: I had a pre-arranged dinner appointment with friends. It was the most difficult dinner I had ever. I didn't really manage to eat much. My friends kindly ordered a seafood soup-broth thing so I could drink the soup. As we went to this Korean BBQ place, they had a segment where the staff dressed up as Squid Game people and gave out that candy thing for us. Since I couldn't eat, this task was left to me. Well. In-movie, I'd have died LOL. Here though, we get no discount (if you manage to complete the task you get a big discount off the final bill)
Lunch: tomato soup.... told the waitstaff to hold the breads as I can't eat them anyway
Dinner: ... I had already told the family I couldn't eat, but Dad still fries me a burger, saying "it's extra soft!" Out of commitment and respect I tried to eat it, and you can't imagine the pain I was in eating that.
Lunch: Shrimp Bisque served in a bread. I usually hate shrimp bisque but I wanted to try a thicker soup, and it being served in a bread bund, I could scrap off the softened bread inside and try to eat a bit of that. Worked out well for me!
Dinner: I did not have the mood to take a photo because I had a mini-explosion. Despite having put in the request for liquid food and offering to cook a soup myself when I got home, they guaranteed they'll get me something I could eat. And when I get home, what is being served? Fish. Steamed fish. Not even a fillet. A whole fish, full of bones, where if I had to eat it, it would incur a lot of tongue moving. I refused to eat that. Then Dad said he prepared a congee for me. Congee. With a lot of small tiny rice that I would need to move my tongue around if the rice catches in any crevices in my mouth. Fine. I ate the congee. I did not touch the fish. The parents were upset I've "wasted" the fish. Gee.

Saturday 30-October
No photos but I just had the usual breakfast choco shake. I plan to heat up a Campbell soup for lunch, and probably will finish the same soup for dinner. The pain in my tongue is less intense now, as long as I don't move it too much. So I'm as settled as I could be, I suppose!
