Do I look thinner? I am! I can't believe I've lost over 31 total inches so far! I made my 13 lb weight loss goal in only 8 weeks, and I feel wonderful! I have much better energy than before I started on this journey. I don't have to have an afternoon nap all the time any more!

Last week I promised you some recipes. I'm going to start with something even better: How to make the perfect shake! Anthony P has lost over 130 lbs using this method, and in the process, learned how to make great-tasting shakes!
You can see how Anthony makes some of the best-tasting shakes in the business by visiting Shake Trial.





Here's one of my favorite original shake recipes:
Chocolate Mint Surprise Tummy Trimmer Shake
1 scoop Dutch Chocolate Formula 1
1 scoop French Vanilla Formula 1
1 heaping tablespoon of cocoa (any will do, though Hershey's Special Dark is great)
1/2 teaspoon Peppermint extract
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup of soy milk, rice milk, coconut milk, skim or lowfat milk, OR 1/2 cup whole milk and 1/2 cup water
Crushed ice.

Add all the ingredients to crushed ice in your blender. Blend until smooth. 

The shake gets extra tummy trimming power from the olive oil. Don't worry that you're going to taste it, because you won't! All that healthy monounsaturated fat does is add to the smoothness of the shake and help your body burn off that unhealthy fat around your middle!

To me, this tastes a little like a York Peppermint Patty. Let me know what you think!
