Watch what you eat

Lost Soul · Oct 11th, 2004, 07:12

My girlfriend just got back from India ona busimess trip and she has come back 15 lbs lighter and sick as a dog, and she said she ate in "quality restaurants" so be careful what you eat if you visit India.

Wow. Thank you for this useful advice.

Commiserations for your girlfriend man, I hope she hasn't suffered too much. She could have become ill from anything though, I don't think it's necessary to warn about the restaurants.

Maybe she came in contact with the welfare state and became infected ...

"Quality restaurants" These can be trying to be something that they are not,and get it wrong!!! Best bet is to eat where a lot of other peaple eat.

Perhaps we could have some restaurant recommendations from your girlfriend, to help us lose weight?

become a student, and eat nothing but pasta. thats what i did! i gagging for a bit of steak!

most people i know fell sick because of the water, not food. most food in india is cooked throughly.. if you drink only quality bottled/boiled water, and avoid water in all forms -- including ice, you should do ok..

Whatever happened to the 'drink only beer' theory of staying healthy?

Ruprecht · Oct 12th, 2004, 07:07

Nothing. It is still a theory!

Karma Queen · Oct 12th, 2004, 08:03

pasta and beer: that's pretty much my diet

edwardseco · Oct 12th, 2004, 09:49

Ruprecht · Oct 13th, 2004, 02:42

If you lose 15 pounds, I would suggest that it is weight you can afford to lose...
