    I just discovered BVLD tortoni: "Crushed amaretti cookies, toasted salt-and-sugar praline almonds, and macerated Bing cherries in almond ice cream.”

    I now prefer it to cherry garcia for my cherry and ice cream fix.

    I freeze them and snack on them all day long.

    lol i do this

    i freeze a big part of my fresh bought fruits and snack on them, like little ice creams. Love it!

    Me too! Frozen cherries are great but frozen raspberries win hands down, IMO

    My latest obsession is frozen grapes. They have been good and inexpensive lately and now I have a freezer full.

    At this moment i have made boxes with frozen:

    Blueberries
    Cherries
    Watermelon
    Apple
    Pear
    Cantaloupe
    Mango
    Strawberries
    Avocados
    Red grapes
    Green grapes
    Nectarines
    Peaches
    Pineapple

    I cut them all up and freeze them in boxes..in the evening i eat a mixed bow of something lol
    And through the day i sometimes snack.
    Frozen they have more bite to chew on. At the moment cantaloupe and cherries is my favorite.

    Well, you know what they say about cherries... "Once you pop, you can't stop."

    With this and the Special K thread....you seem almost scared of carbs.

    If you follow the guidelines that MFP set for you, log consistently and accurately and eat at a deficit...you'll lose weight.

    oh is this that chick?

    yeah. ummm go read every response youve been given on previous threads. advice has not changed.

    How many calories is 30 cherries by weight in grams?

    Were you able to stay within your calorie goals?

    How did your feel after eating 30 cherries?

    Nobody here can tell you whether you overdid it, we can only say if for ourselves it would be too much (or not enough).

    For me?

    Yeah, that would be way too many cherries. :)

    But they aren't the size of the one you are pushing.

    Sorry, I don't get what you mean....

    Look at the big red cherry you're pushing in your profile picture ;-)

    Ohhhhh! Now I get it!

    THAT's funny! :D

    Usually I catch NC's sense of humor pretty quickly, but this time I was like....huh?
    ROFL. You need more coffee.

    No kidding!

    Depends on how you feel and if it fits your calorie goal.

    I ate a bunch of cherries recently and had to pee like crazy. Turns out cherries can have that effect. livestrong.com/article/84264-foods-drinks-natural-diuretics/

    Because of this thread I'm sitting here noshing on a bowl of cherries. 100g= 20 cherries= 50 calories. OP you're fine :)

    Where did you get cherries this time of year? I normally count down to October/November when Woolies starts selling them again!

    Both coles and woolies have them here. I'm pretty sure they are imported from America.. Definitely not Aussie cherries.

    You must have some whopper cherries! I weighed out 100g, which was 20 cherries, equals 50 calories per usda website. Crap, I hope I didn't pick the wrong entry...
