Day 1: Mom's lemon cake with strawberries and whipped cream
Day 2: Chocolate cookie sammich with almond butter
Day 3: Chocolate and salted caramel pecan froyo
Day 4: A Barney butter cup
Day 5: Half a dozen Barney butter cups
Day 6: Angel food cake with a strawberry
Day 7: MY SON MADE ME RASPBERRY BROWNIES!!!
Day 8: Warm raspberry brownie with Talenti Vanilla Bean and a couple squares of Taza stone ground 80% dark chocolate.
Day 9: Talenti Vanilla Bean with a Barney butter cup chopped into the cup. This was as tasty as I'd imagined, but I should have mixed it in better. I have only two Barney butter cups left, which is good because I'm frankly getting a little tired of them now. :ohwell:

Change of plans. Only ate 1 square of chocolate and had one nutella cookie before I baked them.
I also decided since I was baking and needed to make more granola bars that I might as well spend an extra 15 mins in the kitchen and make my no-bake chocolate peanut butter protein cookies as well. 219 calories per, 21C, 11F, 12P. Gonna see how they taste tomorrow since I changed the recipe a bit, and might end up adding more protein powder next go.0 -

Caramelized Onion Ice Cream: Went to the Ice Cream Shop this morning to pick it up. First I tried a taste of Chocolate Potato Chip... it was okay, but the potato chips were kind of soggy and kind of lacking flavor. Then I tried a sample of Ginger-Hibiscus. Maybe it was because I had just had the choco, but I didn't tast anything. So I went with Plan A: Pint of Caramelized Onion. As soon as I got home I had a taste... OMFG... it's like French Onion Soup Ice Cream. Had a half pint for PM snack.
Banoffee Pie I've heard about before, and then I saw it in this thread so I decided to make it. Saw some recipes online last night. This was probably the easiest homemade thing ever. I did cheat by using a pre-made graham cracker crust, but making the "toffee" was mindless (boiling two closed cans of sweetened condensed milk), and how how hard is it to slice a couple bananas? Had a slice for mid-day snack. I wish it had set-up a little better for presentation, but the taste was great. I also learned that my can opener needs a gear lash adjustment and that my can opener does not have adjustable gear lash.
Incidentally, as I type this, I just realized that had I made my own graham cracker crust, Banoffee would've been a Clean Food(tm). Not five or more ingredients, only FOUR! Graham Cracker, butter, banana, sweetened condensed milk
Day 1: Peanut Bismarck, Kroger Cherry Cordial Ice Cream
Day 2: Three Twins Sea Salt Caramel
Day 3: Chocolate Nutella Angel Food Cake, Talenti Sea Salt Caramel
Day 4: Rookery Bread Pudding, Pate & Raspberry Wheat, Talenti Caramel Apple Pie
Day 5: Safeway Collassal Cheesecake, Talenti Caramel Apple Pie
Day 6: Breez-Inn Apple Fritter, SOB Red Velvet Cake
Day 7: Mango Cheesecake, Chocolate Boston Cream Cake
Day 8: Cadburt Egg Brownie, Talenti Sea Salt Caramel
Day 9: Banoffee Pie, Carmelized Onion Ice Cream0 -

This is such a fantastic post for newbies to read! My last few attempts petered out because I denied myself anything yummy tasting and than couldn't stand missing out. I saw the Ice Cream thread and read it through, but never joined in the discussion. I did learn from it though and participated in it. I am steadily losing at least 1 to 2lb a week and enjoying sweets.
I've been enjoying Skinny Cow Snickerdoodles Ice Cream Sandwiches at least once a day. They are amazing and not really diet, but I have my husband hooked on them right now.
I also work next to a Harry and David store and splurge on their chocolate bars or gummi bears (the bears are the best!) as well. I just break off sections of candy and put the rest away for later so it fits into my day.0 -

Well.... it's that time again...
After the wild success of the "30 Day Gelato | Ice Cream Cleanse Diet"....we're going to broaden the horizons now and welcome new ideas.
Here's What's Up
-Pick your poison for the day - You choose your destiny be it : Ice Cream, Cake, Cookies, Chocolates, Candies, Pies, Brownies, etc. It is all up to you!
-You choose the serving size (size doesn't matter here)! We all have different caloric needs, so as with the last 30 Day Ice Cream Cleanse, I'm fully aware not everyone can fit multiple servings!
-No fake knock off's like Arctic Zero, or that other wannabe stuff!
-Feel free to create and contribute your own recipes to share (no Cauliflower)!
The whole point is to eat foods you enjoy while still seeing amazing progress. Step outside of your palate zone and try something new. If you want, you can even review it. I'll keep my reviews consistent as with the last thread. Here's what I'm working with for starters. I won't stick with Chocolate throughout the entire 30 days, but I've really been interested in forcing myself to test out all of these unique flavors I keep seeing.
Let the games begin!0 -
