Lucy!!! I'm Home!!!

We got home at almost 2 am this morning from our vacation to Sandals Emerald Bay!

What a week....we did NOTHING and it felt so good! It was our first Sandals vacation and while we didn't care for the food (many others didn't either) we got exactly what we thought we were getting....a great beach and a gorgeous pool to lay around every day.

And did I mention the Butler service? Well, we had two butlers at our beck and call every day! It was a little over the top actually. I was hanging out about 50 feet from the pool bar and asked for a bottle of water...the response was..."you have to call your Butler for that"! So, I started bringing about 3-4 bottles from my room out to the pool/beach with me because I just thought it was crazy to have him come from the other side of the resort to get water for me that was within spitting distance of where I was sitting! Our Butler Stephen said we were the least maintenance of all the guests he's ever had and the maid told me one day we had the neatest room of all her rooms! They offered to unpack our suitcases when we got there and I was all "no way someone is gonna be touching my undies!"

The week went very fast and my band NEVER loosened up. As I sit here typing this, my dinner of a few bites of scrambled egg is threatening to come up. Earlier, I had a few spoonfuls of yogurt and I did manage to get down a protein shake...thats it! The good news is I lost 2.6 lbs while there. I am now down to 171. Unfortunately, this crazy band of mine is really making me nuts! My last fill was on 9/16/10 and now its tight? Crazy. Anyway, I called my doctor and i will be going to get a little taken out on Wed. This tightness really started a week before we left for Vegas so I know its not really vacation related so I don't want to start the cycle of just eating sliders so I am going to ask for .1 or .2 cc's to be taken out.

Thats it for tonight, I am exhausted! The following are a few pics from Sandals:

I loved your photos. Glad you had a great time and a safe journey home. I have to say though all that "stuff" in and around the bath would drive me nuts!
You look awesome by the way.
