Current weight 74.8 kg
Back on track. And I owe it all to Gay Pride. Having spent two days on sushi and vegetable soup my weight loss campaign was doing well but disaster was looming in the form of Lamb Korma. We had planned to meet friends in the city for a curry on Saturday night. Now I love Indian food but everyone knows that in its western incarnation it is the highest calorie cuisine available. Especially as I can never resist the naan bread. So when we discovered that 70,000 colourfully dressed folk were expected to be marching down the very street we planned to dine on we realised that we were never going to be able to find a place to stand, let alone park or eat.As a result we ended up consuming (slightly) fewer calories at our favourite Greek restaurant elsewhere. They claim 'local goat' is the house signature dish but they have yet to show us exactly where on Rokeby Road the animals are raised. Anyway, I'll be sticking to salad, won't I?
