Day 1
Starting weight: 289 lbs
Ending weight: 298 lbs
It is my first day in Europe, we arrived around noon, and so far, all I've done is eaten. I've had three large cups of gelatto, a grilled duck, some potatoes, and deep fried rice balls with cheese in the center. And somehow I've gained weight, I was up to 298lbs by the end of the day. I've gained 9lbs in one day. I think maybe I'm gaining muscle from walking around all day. Makes sense, I've got a good pump going in my legs and thighs from walking around the block to see what I can.
I found the fountain of Trevi, and there is an awesome gelatto shop there. They have so many flavors that they don't have in the states, so I had to try the nutella gelatto. Down the alley from the fountain is where I had an amazing duck in orange sauce with rosemary potatoes. I walked a little further and someone offered me the rice balls filled with cheese.
About halfway on my walk I stopped for more gelatto, a large cup of coffee and creme flavored, luckily I was able to finish it by the time I got to the hotel, because at the hotel, each room gets a card for one free cup of gelatto. So I went down to the restaurant and had raspberry flavor gelatto. But in all honesty, I say that the nutella was the best.
I don't know what it is about the food here, but it tastes so much better than the food at home.
