Lose the Freshman 15: Eating Around the World

Well hello! Long time no see!

I’m sorry for my hiatus — I’ve just been traipsing around Europe with my friends (gosh, that makes me sound SO MUCH COOLER than I really am). I have been having an amazing spring break, but just between us (and the entire internet) I’ll be ready to get back into a food and exercise routine. When did I become such an elderly person about this? I just love me my SELF diet, I guess.

Right now I’m still in England with my best friend, and I’ll be so sad to say goodbye to her. But when I get back, pictures and stories will follow! We ate so well in Paris (I can’t look at another piece of pastry though) and when we got back to her flat in Manchester, it struck me how different it is to cook for yourself every day. Since I still live off a meal plan, this cooking thing was new to me… and I realized how free you are to make healthy choices. Jealous!

That’s not to say you can’t be healthy in a dining hall, of course… and after this trip, I’m ready to go back and take on a renewed challenge to do just that.

Au revoir for now!
