Weigh In and What's for Dinner

So, I continue to march toward "less me".  Down .6 for a grand total of 28.2 lbs lost.  Not bad at all, if I do say so myself. 

The walk turned out to be 2.6 miles.  I plan to do it every day.  We will see.  Its an easy walk, level ground, with the only stressors being time and heat.  We have a short period in the day when we can get away from our desks and you don't want to take off on a hike in Arizona when its a gazillion degrees outside.  Even the coyotes have enough sense to get out of the sun and heat!!

Tonite for dinner I am trying a couple of new recipes:
