Black boots and a beaded necklace complimented her ensemble. ‘As someone who eats for a living part of the time, the ability to quickly whip myself into shape is crucial.’ Lakshmi wrote in her blog. ‘Luckily, I have a little poem that keeps me on track when I need to lose weight: No meat, no sweets, no wheat, no cheese, no alcohol, no fried food. ‘White meat such as fish, turkey, or chicken breast are acceptable, but there is absolutely no red meat allowed. Small amounts of potatoes or rice are also fine, but it should be kept to a minimum. If you follow this poem for the entire month of January, not only will you feel clearheaded but you will also most certainly lose weight.’
