Hi May,

So I've been on a diet for the past 3 weeks and have lost 10 lbs. But there's an Indian buffet across the street and I can't stop thinking about it. I want a yummy lunch. Subway is starting to repulse me.

What should I do??

Pete

Indian!! And have panang currie one of my favs.

Did I tell you I learned to make green Thai currie? I took a cooking class in Koh Samui

Are you on the Subway diet like that guy Derek??

Derek? You mean Jared, right?

I'm trying really hard to look up nutritional data on Indian food in hopes that it will turn me off to it but so far I can't find anything.

Sigh. I went from a non-fat lunch to a naan-fat lunch. Get it? Naan? I'm so clever you love it.

Hahaha... I do.

I guess it is Jared.

A bunch of us are going out for Ethiopian tomorrow. Have you had that? You'd love it b/c it's super spicey and they have their own kind of naan, but can't think of the name now.

Do it! Do it! Yay Indian!!

We have some new Indian neighbors and I love walking passed their door and smelling the yummy food:)

Thanks May.

Indian food is one of the most fattening things you can eat. You might as well eat a pizza drenched in lard. Good job however on losing the 10 pounds. What's the secret? Doesn't sound like will power.

Authentic indian food is delicious but it burns a hole in my stomach its so spicy. Eating their rice feels like chomping on a jalapeno pepper.

I just did a google search on naan. Looks like it would be quite good-a softer pita bread that can be dipped into anything. Perhaps I need to explore Indian food myself.
