I walked for 40 minutes after lunch at the office while listening to an audiobook. Came back to work and had a really productive afternoon. I started such walks thinking that it would be good for my circadian rhythms if I got early afternoon sunlight, but I know simply like how the walks (today was the 2nd one) make me feel. Plus, walking after lunch blunts the glucose spikes that I otherwise would have from eating carbs. When I went on my first walk, it was after I ate a whole naan (Indian flat bread) for lunch. I live naan but rarely allow myself to eat it because I am trying to limit simple carbs. So, with the walk that followed, the naan did not cause a glucose spikes. So, so far so good.

I have also lost a couple of pounds and am almost back to the weight at which I was prior to the injuries in the fall that caused me to cut back on exercise.
