8 Weeks Down – Knock Out The Fat With George Foreman
It’s been officially 8 full weeks since I started the George Foreman Knock Out The Fat Weight Loss Challenge with Mamavation. I am so excited to announce that this Sunday I wore a pair of pants to church that I hadn’t wore in over a year! Before this campaign I wasn’t even able to get these pants up over my thighs and past my booty, let alone button them and they look good. I’m so excited! I know it doesn’t show that I’ve lost much weight but considering I wasn’t overweight I guess I just lost it in the areas that mattered the most. I plan to try and work out more because I really need some more toning but just fitting in one size smaller pants gives me the motivation I need.
The George Foreman website has some yummy recipes that I plan to try. We have been grilling so much chicken lately because it’s so easy that I want to spice things up a bit. This week we are going to attempt this recipe along with many others:
Grilled Tilapia with Peppercorn Salsa
- 1 can (11 oz.) southwestern corn
- ¼ cup minced purple onion
- 2 tbsp. chopped cilantro
- 2 tbsp. diced green pepper
- 1 large cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp. ground cumin
- 4 tilapia fillets (about 1½ lbs)
- 1 tsp. garlic salt
- ½ tsp. lemon pepper
- 1 tsp. olive oli
Visit the George Foreman Recipe site to find the directions on how to make this main course as well as many other recipes.
I’ve lost another pound and believe I have reached my ideal weight loss. Now if I can just tone up the fat I’ll be happy.
Full Disclosure: I am one of 10 Brand Ambassadors in the George Foreman Knock out the Fat Weight Loss Challenge. I was sent a George Foreman Grill for my participation in this challenge and will be compensated for my time at the end of the 90 day challenge. HOWEVER, ALL opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own.
WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Congratulations on wearing pants you haven’t worn in a while AND meeting your idea weight!
Congrats!!! I can’t believe you have been at this for 8 weeks already.
Good for you!! I am really looking forward to getting back in shape after baby, so you’ll have to keep me motivated and challenge me on the Wii Fit Plus. 🙂
WooHoo for a smaller pants size! That is awesome news! Good Luck trying some bolder dishes with the grill. I can’t wait to have this baby so I can tone back up and wear my jeans again. Happy Dance all the way around!

I love my George Foreman. It is so easy to grill chicken and pork chops on. And yes, sooo healthy too!
You are doing AWESOME! What a great feeling to fit into jeans you haven’t worn in a while
WOOOOOOOO!!!! Goal clothes and back-in-the-day-jeans are the best boosts, aren’t they? Congratulations!
Go Dwan, GO DWAN! I am so proud of you!! You are doing awesome and you loook fab-u-lous!
Congratulations!! I need to tone up a lot more than I need to actually loose pounds….but I would be SO happy if I could fit better in some of my pants!
