Anyone in Paris?

I've come to realise that there are... let's say 'challenges' to weight loss and exercise that are specific to the French capital. So wondering if there were any other MFP members to share the experience! I've searched for a group and there isn't one, and there aren't really any forum posts either - are you all hiding or am I just yet to discover the secret of French skinny-ness?

Hi! I don't live in Paris but I do live in Angoulême (what, you haven't heard of it?!) so I'm familiar with the temptations of living in France at least! My secret has been mainly to cook for myself, haha. Vegetables and fruit are really cheap here and of course the seasonals now are great (so many potato leek quiches and frittatas and soups). My main challenge is entering almost everything I eat into the database myself, haha. I'd love to have another Frenchie friend, so please send me an add if you want! We can recipe swap and talk about bread. Nnnnnnngh bread
