My Eat Pray Love Moment

…that awkward moment when you realize none of your pants fit anymore.

I have been in Rome for nearly a month and a half and during that time I have consumed way too much vino, pasta, pizza and pane (bread). Not sure how many of you have read Eat Pray Love, but when she was living in Rome she indulged in the food and gained a ton of weight. I have decided that I will not be indulging anymore. The first six weeks were fun, but I can’t go on like this. Since I would like to enjoy the beaches of the Mediterranean this summer, I do believe an intervention is in order. I have decided to go on a diet and become more active. The plan is tennis twice per week, running three times per week and some how squeezing in bikram yoga. I plan to limit pasta to once a week. I hope to lose 10 pounds (4.5 kilos for my metric friends) by June 1st.
