I had a Chocolate Shake yesterday!!! Yum!!!

I am so happy to report this weeks results. Needless to say it was far from being a perfect week. However I'm still down 4.2 lbs... Yay!!! We had the Rodeo in town this week and I ate fish and chips on Thursday night. Friday night we went to the Drive-in and yup I messed up again. I had a hamburger and french fries. The fish made me go up 1+ and the with the hamburger I maintained. However the next morning I got right back on the plan and the green drinks. So this shows you how you can loose great weight with just the green drinks. This week I'm going to try for a perfect week and see the results. This morning I'm down another 1.2 lbs so I'm off to a good start. I'm hoping to bust another O this week! Yay!!!

Yesterday I woke up from my Sunday afternoon nap craving something sweet. So I got up and made a treat! I made an amazing chocolate shakes and it was pretty legal. This is what I did.

I put the coconut water and meat from 1 young Thai coconut into the blender. I added vanilla, cinnamon and two small banana's. From there I added 2 handful's of walnuts and a cup of water. I quickly realized that this wasn't going to be enough for the 5 of us so I tossed in a can of Thai coconut milk (if I wasn't so tired I would have cracked open another Thai coconut, it would have been better) I blended this all up really well added a bit more cinnamon to taste and I really liked it. However I had to try it and I tossed in a big handful of roasted carob chips. (Yum) I blended this really well and then added ice until it was pretty thick.

This was so yummy and good! Even Josh who is pretty sceptical about these things downed his share of the pitcher. It was a cold refreshing treat and I loved that it was legal. I was worried because it tasted so good. However the days loss just goes to show that you can have your treats and still loose weight.

We have a family reunion coming up on the 9th of August. My goal is to work hard, loose all the weight I can and amaze my family. That's still 26 days so I know I can make a difference in the way I look. However my 15.8 lbs loss is starting to be noticeable. I'm feeling great and I'm digging stuff out of my closet that I havent' been able to wear in awhile. So I'm really hoping for another 15 lbs for the reunion... I hope that's not to big of a goal but I do think it is possible.
Well I've rambled on long enough and I need my smoothie! So I hope you all have a great day!
:)
