Losing weight abroad

darylewb

I live in Afghanistan, but don't eat the local food. There are two dining facilities here, one does the standard American diet and the other is more European focused. To make matters even more complicated, I don't eat meat, don't like eggs and really don't care for dairy much and try to minimize it.

My solution was to buy a slow cooker and set it up in my office and head into the local market near base for grains, beans and vegetables to cook for myself.
