No nitrate/nitrite Ham from Trader Joes, Spicy Tuna Cakes, Deviled Eggs, Asparagus and a HUGE salad with all sorts of veggies in it.
Part of the NOT Whole30 was the Sangria. I just wanted some booze after 30 days!
My kids and Jake's girlfriend Emily.

The Foot!
No pain at all. Not even ibuprofen. That is better then before the surgery. Of course it's in a boot. I've been diligent about wearing it and even put a shoe cover on it to work outside. This Friday I can start small amounts of time in my shoe. I will probably keep using the night splint until I see the podiatrist again.
Yesterday I went to the gym and it felt fabulous! I used the recumbent bike for 20 minutes to warm up and then just worked out on the machines. I'm going again today to just keep my spirits up if nothing else.

Many runners have recommended it. I figured since I was basically starting fresh then I might as well work on my form a little bit. I bought the book from Thriftbooks (used books) so I can take it to the gym while I pedal the bike. So far..LOVE IT.
Tomorrow I'm back to work. Yeah! I'm ready to get back to life!
