Oh, one more suggestion, the bagged salads at Monoprix are wonderfully fresh. Just pick up a bottle of dressing, pour some into the bag, mix and eat right out of the bag....another picnic friendly strategy to get your daily greens. Take along some plastic cutlery from home or grab some from a fastfood place when there.

Think of how good you will feel to have been on vacation and come home thinner! It gave me a great sense of power...to know I can resist the temptation to give myself permission to eat everything in sight "because it's only a few days and I must try everything!"

Okay off the soapbox and over to fitday (if I can get in, it seems to be down).
