T'es chanceuse, toi! I love the Tarn region, you are lucky, French, to live in such a beautiful area. I spent a summer north of Bordeaux (near La Rochelle), and traveled several times to Angouleme. I passed through the Tarn on my honeymoon many years ago. Later, I lived in Paris and for a very short time in the Haute Savoie.
Might take you up on a visit sometime. If you ever want to visit the Chesapeake Bay, let me know. I'll be in Brittany this spring, and then head down to Gerona and Barcelona for some cycling.
As for weight loss, congratulations. I found that when I lived in France I had no problem with my weight. I ate fresh, good food, and we took our time eating it. I think that's key--taking the time to sit down and really enjoy meals instead of stuffing food in our mouths as we drive somewhere.
