Lose weight – Croatian style!
People look at T and think all Croatians are long and lithe but they’re not. Yes, they eat far less prepared food than us but they too suffer from too much of it sometimes. Mardi Gras is just underway and already we are talking about dieting, cutting back, not drinking etc. This morning, T proposed the astronaut’s diet and said she is going on it. I said, I’m in!
The problem is when to start? After the guests leave? Before the next group arrives? During Mardi Gras weekend? Lent?
The diet has to do with boiled eggs and grapefruit – I’m adding my dash of Apple Cider Vinegar, the new cure all – and no sweets (that marble cake on the counter and the tin of cookies be damn).
Goodbye stomach, hello austerity.
