Oh.. there's no place like home....

Dorothy had that one right. I enjoyed my trip to France, and felt great to be successful our 'journey' while I was there, but I have to tell you.. ... There really is 'no place like home'. 

While I was away, I faced many temptations and overcame each one. I got more exercise (the French walk EVERYWHERE on the site there) than I have had in the last 5 years. 

Because of the 'plan' I found it difficult at times to get what I needed. Water was difficult to have access to in the building where we were meeting and I couldn't just run out to a 'supermarket' to get some, so I only had about half of what I needed every day. HOWEVER.. I am VERY PROUD of myself.

Sunny Girl, I'm VERY PROUD of you as well. You stuck to plan and posted very well while I was away too!

My plan today is to shop for food for next week. I want to roast a chicken and roast beef so we can eat it during the week. I want to try to cook more than to rely on shakes or prepared meats during the week, when I don't feel like cooking.

I am also going to seek Ed's advise on some simple exercising that I can start doing each day to start getting into the grove and into gear. I've asked him to be my 'personal' trainer (ok.. you all, no jokes!)! :)
