My summer in Sweden

 Hey guys,

Well, here I am 3rd week in my mother in laws basement, 2 weeks left to go. I have gone up 1.5lbs in the basement, but hey, I have been eating swedish soul food so I am not surprised. I definitely have not been exercising to my normal levels and I can't wait to get home and back in my potato free home :).

On the plus side, I have been going biking with my 4 yr old twins and picking wild blueberries, and seeing Moose and the occasional musk ox. The lakes are beautiful and I did get over to Copenhagen, Denmark to see Pearl Jam! That has been the highlight of my trip.

I am happily suprised to "only" gained 1.5lbs, because normally when I travel it is at least 5, so I am not going to freak out, I do have my nectar protein with me and I am going to eat salmon fillet for the next couple of days!

I hope you guys are having a great summer!

Heather

Are you loving the many hours of sunlight? I'd be loving the change of scenery, myself!
1.5 is pretty darn good for three weeks of Swedish pancakes, lingonberry sauces, etc....
Keep up the good work.

 Your right, its those damn waffles..hahaha. I am enjoying the scenery and mild temps, quite the opposite of Costa Rica!

 I think you're doing great Heather.  I love the image of you and your 4 year old twins out biking!

Have fun on the rest of your trip.

Thats a NSV, that I can bike with them

 I did not know that you have children!   

 Lee, I have 4 kids, 19, 15, and the 4 yr old twins! Yep, started early, I'm from the south hahaha

 Wow Heather, you really don't look old enough!  Now I'm really impressed!

No way you have teenagers.  You look so young! 

Is that where they have that sinful breakfast goodie called Ebelskivers? or some such spelling as that. I saw them on the food network and was getting all ready to make them and buy the special pan, etc, when I decided to have VSG. I doubt my mouth will ever go around one of them now. They looked so incredibly wonderful. If you have them in Sweden, how are you avoiding them??
