Home is good, but I miss you all so much.......Where's dinner?? :)

Wow, the real world is overwhelming. I keep waiting for my meals to be served and instead I hear from my hubby what’s for dinner. Yes I made it home late last night and yes there is no place like home. The Chicago airport where I had a layover was a hoot since many of the employees and a couple of customers where in their Halloween costumes. It was so wonderful to sink into our king sized bed and not have to get up early for a hike. My dog was thrilled along with my hubby to get me home and I was thrilled to hug them both. I did get to the grocery and picked up the ingredients for turkey chili and I plan to make the granola tomorrow. Skip, my husband, Sasha, my dog and I took a great hike today and yes there were a lot of up hills. I managed to eat and stay in my calorie range even through I was overwhelmed.

My last day at the resort was wonderful. First I need to tell my results I lost almost 20 pounds, and a total of 10.5 inches, 3 in my chest, 3 in my belly and 4.5 in my hips. Not bad for an older lady. I decreased my body fat by 5.4 % and decreased my BMI by 7.8. I am pleased and excited about the results.








Saturday I hiked a difficult hike in some deep mud, but was so thrilled I completed it. I made every hike and this of course was my favorite part of the program. I got to hike with some of my favorite guides so this made it even sweeter. It was hard to pack and leave since I have met so many absolutely fascinating people. I love you all and will never forget this adventure of a lifetime. Sitting around the pool and chatting and trying to sing was a show stopper for me. Thanks again for including me and encouraging me all the time. I miss you all, but I am so happy to be home…..Here’s a few more pictures for our memory bank…
