Hello Arijitmitter
Many of us keep a weight loss diary in the diet and motivation section. It was what i was looking for when i came to this site. Maybe you are too.
I see you are from calcutta. I was there for two weeks xmas 2010. Loved it except for the pollution.
I found in india the best diet food is what is fed to you in places like ashrams and gurdwaras. I Love the food there. Just LOVED it. Otherwise i really struggled with most indian food. Otherwise indian food is much too rich and much too sweet.
Alternatively if you could eat a basic "average" persons thali (not a rich person's thali) and follow the sort of diet those people follow you should do fine. I hope that doesn't sound patronising. But i spent a lot of time travelling through Orissa this last trip and i noticed, were it not for the chilli, the food is very healthy and good. Not good for me though because chilli makes me so very unhappy. So i couldn't eat much of what they ate.
