I once spent 51 days riding from Frankfurt, Germany to London, by way of Italy, and I kept a food journal (I should look for that). We ate lots of pastries and ice cream and pasta. Just before we left London to come back to the US I bought some nice dress pants. They fit me for about a week. I didn't realize how much weight I lost during that ride, despite the huge intake of food.
(My friends wanted to climb the Leaning Tower of Pisa but I didn't want to spend the money. I said, "I need that money for more food." I did end up going up, and I'm now glad I did.)
