Happy Tuesday!  Wow is it hard to get back into the swing of things at work.  I think I love vacation.  I kept up with most of my emails while I was out so I wasn't so stressed coming back to a ton of emails this time.  That I guess has caused me to waiver a little.  I'd like to be sitting on the beach...I bet it is sunny now that I'm home. Ha!

Well DH and I hit the track at 8p.m. last night and we ended up walking 2 miles.  We wanted to do more but it was getting dark and cloudy as if it were going to rain any time plus we hadn't had dinner so we went to Qdoba and then did the Wally World thing and went home.  My daughter said, "Mom, didn't it defeat the purpose of walking if you went to eat afterwords?".  I said, "Of course not.  Everyone has to eat!"  Granted it was late, but I can have protein any time and I love their black beans and chicken.  I ate about a 2 inch segment of the burrito that I ordered and brought the remainder for lunch today.  I had black beans, chicken, cheese, sour cream, peppers, onions, tomato relish, squash and zucchini in it.  I could only eat about 2 inches today and tossed the rest, but at least I got two meals out of the $6.00 burrito.

I'm heading home around 5p.m. today and DH and I are going to hit the track again.  Hoping to go 3 miles tonight working our way up to 5 miles.  Won't that be a WOW moment for me.  Wasn't so very long ago I had to have my inhaler to just walk a block to Jersey Mike's for lunch.  Glad those days are gone for good!

I talked to my friend Cuddlebug last night.  She had her surgery while I was in Florida.  She was an insulin dependent diabetic before WLS and now yipee for her she has had only one insulin shot since WLS.  She only weighs 195 now (214 before WLS) so it shouldn't take her long to drop the weight, but wow to be cured of diabetes that fast.  It is wonderful for her if she doesn't lose another pound she is a SUCCESS.  Go Linda!!!

Well...I'd better get back to the old grind stone.  Hope everyone is having a Happy Tuesday!!!  Just three more days to the weekend.  Yeah!!!
