July 25 – up 0.2lbs, not enough water!
July 26 – up 2.0lbs, I really think I have a problem with potato salad…
July 27 – down 0.4lbs, Smooth Move tea is en route, I’m really quite sure if I could get this GI issue under control, I’d be down 5lbs! lol
July 28 – down 1.2lbs, the water is totally key….and thank god for Smooth Move Tea!
July 29 – down 2.0lbs! Ok, water is it…the more I drink, the more I lose!
July 30 - up 0.2lbs, well pooh. I’m wondering if the 99% fat free chicken broth is the culprit?
July 31 – down 0.2lbs – yep, I think its the chicken broth!
Weight Analysis – I’m down 3.8lbs, not including the 2.2lbs I gained. Can I get through a week without sneaking the potato salad I wonder?? My end of week weight is 210.4lbs, very close to being out of the 2-teens!
Physical – Everything fits better! I’m wearing a shirt that was too tight, and it looks good! Getting compliments from people too, which makes my day. Week five pictures coming soon!

July 18 – down 1.0lbs, which means I’m only 0.6lbs away from my first mini-goal, my wedding day weight!
July 19- up 1.0lbs, could someone tattoo it on my forehead, do not eat the potato salad!
July 20- down 1.0lbs, I really just need to forget about potato salad. lol
July 21- no loss/gain, hmmm…
July 22- down 0.6lbs, ok, back on track now…
July 23- down 0.2lbs, mehh…
July 24- down 2.0lbs! Was I in a plateau?
Weight Analysis: I’m down 3.8lbs for the week, down to 211.8lbs. Woo hoo! A total of 18.0lbs for the protocol, impressive!
Physical: Can definitely see that my face is thinner, and I can really see definition in my waist. My boobs look bigger!
I got the first of five rewards I have set (yes I have to be bribed) and the first one of them is a purse by B. Makowsky. I hit (and now am below!) the weight I was the day I got married. The purse is a bit extravagant for a weight-loss reward, but I decided that for them to really be worth working for, it has to be something I really want!

Tilapia with Basil and Tomatoes

This is a variation on a recipe I saw involving chicken and asparagus, so I gave it a try! I love garlic (I’m Italian, go figure) so I was pretty heavy-handed with it, but you can substitute whatever spices you prefer. I served it with 2 pieces of Kavli pesto crispbread.
100g white fish (I used tilapia)
1 tomato, diced
2 tsp lemon juice
2 basil leaves (I used fresh)
garlic powder/onion powder to taste
Put fish in the middle of a large piece of aluminum foil, and place diced tomatoes on top. Mix up lemon juice with garlic and onion powder, then pour over fish. Wrap the fish up so that its sealed within the foil, and put in toaster oven on 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until done. Serve and enjoy!
The entire meal came out to be 145 calories and 2.5 grams of fat according to Spark People’s Nutrition Tracker!

July 4 – down 0.2lbs – but had a major cheat day at my parent’s 4th of July barbeque. I regret it, but I don’t think I’ve ever savored my food quite so much, it was amazing!
July 5 – up 3.2lbs – OMG! Yep, the consequences were swift and painful.
July 6 – down 0.8lbs – the pigging out was so stupid!
July 7 – no gain/loss – not sure?
July 8 – down 2.2lbs! Biggest loss in one day, but still 0.2lbs short of my July 4th morning weight.
July 9 – down 1.0lbs! Yay, surpassed the July 4th weight, finally!
July 10 – down 1.0lbs! Soo close out of the 220’s, I can’t believe it!
Weight Analysis: I lost only 1.6lbs due to my cheat day. I can’t say it was worth it, but at least I know what will happen! My ending weight for the week was 220.4. Total weight lost is 9.4lbs since the beginning, which is impressive! My average daily loss is 0.8lbs a day, even with the cheat day.
Physical: I think I can see a difference in the contouring on my thighs, and my arms! This past week I wore a pair of size 18 pants that was too tight on loading day #2. Woo hoo!
