    You added a food that contains calories to your diet and consequently gained weight?! It's almost like magic.

    I'm sure that's good for constipation at least. I love dates but I don't think I'll eat 15 per day but if it works for you then enjoy.

    Stuff them with manchego or cheddar, wrap them with bacon, and broil them for a few minutes on each side. Possibly the most delicious thing ever.

    its not the dates, it is the the calories..

    I would rather fill in my surplus with ice cream, but that is just me....

    Am I the only one that thought this thread meant something else? Marriage can certainly put on weight!

    15 dates in one day?! What a Casanova.

    I love the fruit. I grew up with it in the household as my family fasts for Ramadan. We always break our fasts with dates and milk. However, more than 2 a day would give me a sugar rush :smiley:

    I had those for my birthday, but stuffed with almonds. I agree, absolutely delicious.

    Cheers, h.
