in Introduce Yourself
Hi there,
I have been on MFP for exactly 50 days and am loving it.
I have a smallish weight loss goal (8kg), so from 68 to 60kg and am at around 65kg today. Height 5'5. I have also lots about 5 inches from around my waist and chest.
Food wise I am cutting back drastically on bread, pasta, rice and potatoes which is quite hard especially for the bread as in France the bread here is excellent. Cheese is a big no-no and also cakes, biscuits. The only little pleasure I'm allowing myself is chocolate from time to time.
I am exercising 5 times a week; 1 cardio workout, 1 run, 2 body pump sessions and 1 torture session (squatts, situps). People have started to notice and I see my clothes feel a little loose around the waist.
Feel free to add me.:flowerforyou:

    I really loved the bread and cheeses when I visited Paris this June! Loved them! + the croissants, cakes, hot chocolate, salmon and Turkish pastries from the Latin part of the city :)

    Anyway, the food is amazing there, so you have lots of healthy delicious options. Good luck!

    Bonjour! I don't know how you do it - France has the best bread, cheese, butter, and wine in the world! When I visited I ate so much food, including a croissant every morning for breakfast. Congratulations for having such amazing self-control! Feel free to add me if you're looking for friends on here.

    ETA: Oh my, this is an old post. Whoops!
