I also finally got the tape measure and lost a total of 13.5 cm on the areas we need to measure. So in 2 weeks I've lost 28.5 in total which seems a ridiculous amount.
I am actually wearing shorts now that I was going to photograph the before and after but I couldn't get them on for the before shot, I feel really optimistic that I will keep this lighter healthier me long after I complete the 7 week in total regime.

Lunch was another soup but not off a recipe and a little too watery to hold a great flavour, still it was a prawn tomato broth with more wonderful herbs to excite my palette.
I actually slow boiled the tomatoes with crushed garlic a small amount of onion till soft and then blended it, added the chives, coriander in with the prawns to cook them and sprinkled liberally with parsley before serving.
Dinner was a winner with my hearty meatloaf that I have banged on about for a couple of Blogs. The big taste was the spicy cauliflower.

| Meatloaf with spicy baked cauliflower |
I saw a Facebook recipe from my good friend Tricia and had to delve into it further. Whole cauliflower (adapted to my 150 gram portion) which you marinade with a mixture of the juice of 1/2 a lime, and a good amount of paprika, mexican chilli (because I didn't have regular) and cumin powder. Pop it into the oven on 175c for 20 minutes and then I microwaved it for another 3 minutes to soften it up a little. I made sure that I did this with the remainder of the spiced lime mix so that it really infused through the vegetable.
It was absolutely delicious even though the recipe originally calls for yogurt in the marinade it certainly wasn't necessary in this case.
Bon appetite on this one if you want to try it out.
Perfect world I will be back tomorrow with more good news about a larger drop in my weight for the downhill run.
Cheers!
