Both Jet and I were in France last weekend. Jet in Nice and I in Paris. Whilst Jet started the day jogging, my morning ritual was walking to the boulangerie for a baguette et une croissant. The entire weekend was dedicated to good, from bread with cheese to everything in between. We started this week feeling bloated and couldn’t wait to work out like crazy. The week in bullet points.

• Like I already said, we had a lot of bread to get rid of. Man oh man, I DON’T understand how those Parisiennes stay so damned thin. I would get morbidly obese within a year if I’d live in Paris.
• Jet dined at restaurant Le Grill in Monaco, the restaurant where she used to work four years ago. Old colleagues were greeted, dessert on the house, and the evening was as great as she’d hoped it would be.
• She ate grilled dorade for lunch about four days in a row and can’t bear the sight of a grilled dorade anymore. Well, for now.
• I’m really feeling summery this week and started the Big Clean Up. I’ve lived in my house for 7 years this August and I collected a lot of stuff. I’m such a hoarder, which I inherited from my mother. Who would save broken irons and toasters and say ‘oh well, it doesn’t eat bread.’ In two days, I threw away about THIRTY rubbish bags that weighed 220 kilos taken together. I dragged these three stairs down, put them in a car and threw them away. I can tell you, it resembled an hour long workout of boxing.
• Friday was soccer night. Even for me. Soccer is usually accompanied by metres beer and unhealthy food, not quite killer body proof, but hey I didn’t have a choice.
• We’re still so happy with our Lorna Jane sportswear. It surprises me how thinning it works and really motivates me.
• I’ve had a quiet weekend with few appointments, it was wonderful. Though a package with mini waffels somehow ended up beside me, which I’m surely allowed on the weekend?
• We had a discussion about cardio this week. Because is it good or bad? My sport’s friend Esmée says cardio during your work out is nonsense. Our trainer says that she’s talking nonsense. Who’s right? What to do? Someone got a clue?

Until next week!
