We just returned from 16 wonderful days in France, where the culinary delights are many. French food is known for its liberal use of butter, sugar and bread, all forbidden on the Whole 30.

OMG! I love you for this post…YES, YES, YES….YOU DON”T!!! You enjoy life, food, adventure and keep your health in perspective. So glad you had a wonderful time. J’adore touts les choses francais,mon amie!
Never feel bad for feeling good could be my motto !
If you wish to keep eating good French food back in the US (even not up to the same caliber as in the high cuisine restaurants that you tried), you can try some of my recipes. All of them have been tested with ingredients found in the US.
Just enjoy: http://pattymackz.com/wordpress/recipes/
I agree!! Something I tell my clients is you have to ask yourself “Is it worth it?” Sometimes it is, so go for it!
Do glad you indulged and enjoyed!
I’m so glad you indulged! I was scrolling through these pics thinking, at least take a bite!!! <3
That is great. The whole time I was looking at the pictures I was thinking, you’re crazy if you stayed on the whole 30 because I would have said, “Whole what?” and had everything! So glad you’re human.
I agree. When I’m on vacation I want to experience the culture, food and everything else in all it’s glory without restriction. So glad you enjoyed it. Drooling over your pics.
Thank goodness! I was worried about you. What beautiful delicious food. And good for you – getting right back on your eating plan!
I knew I liked you! I was a little worried about you after reading the title but should have had faith that you would do the “right” thing! I couldn’t stay on Whole 30 at home, never mind in France!
Wow! 16 days!!!! I normally travel over the weekend or sometimes at most is one week. I am sure you’ve done, visited and ate everything that is in your bucket list while you stay in France!
Spending 16 days in France must be an adventure. I like the dishes. All look tempting.
This is the BEST! There is also a wonderful lesson here, everything in moderation. Enjoy you vacation then get back on track when you return home. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom!
Haha I was wondering where this post was going because there’s NO way!! I’m glad you enjoyed yourself and went back to it after you got home 🙂
Still one of my all time favorite posts! So happy you indulged, you deserve it!
