So much for good advice.

So I tried to follow my own advice and tried to eat 70% of my appetite. Or as close as I could. I didn't take the salad nor the pastasciutta (which was rice today which I don't eat), I took about 350 grams of stewed beef and 5 diced eggplant (each was about 1 inch big). Then I got terribly sick. I'm not used to eating so much now; I think 100 grams of meat would have sufficed. Was in bed the whole afternoon with dreadful nausea. Couldn't get the food out of my system. So much for good advice.
