-
Day 1 - Wild Ophelia - Salted Chowchilla Almond. Already discovering new things. Wild Ophelia is a local company to Chicago with a handful of "unique flavors" - http://www.wildophelia.com/. Kind of difficult to review, but it is a nice balance of sweet milk chocolate bar, smokey chopped almonds and sea salt. Also, if you haven't ever tried it,... I highly recommend freezing the chocolate bars prior to consumption.
Day 2 - Chocolove - Dark Chocolate w/ Crystallized Ginger. Nom Nom Nom, big ginger fan over here. Rich Dark Chocolate taste (65%) with just enough sweetness. Spicy and sweet ginger pieces throughout, but not overpowering.
Day 3 - Wild Ophelia - Peanut Butter & Banana - Well, that was delightful
.... Milky chocolaty chocolate with a creamy peanut butter and banana taste (derrrr). Quite macro friendly too. Only 300 cals for the whole bar!
Day 4 - Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Raisins & Pecans. OMGAHHHHH so good! Rich dark chocolate flavor with a crunch texture from the pecans. I also froze the bar per usual for extra added crunch! A number of gooey and sweet raisins all throughout the bar to top it off. YUM!
Day 5 - Wild Ophelia Smokehouse BBQ Potato Chips. This was essentially just a crunchy dark chocolate bar with a very mild occasional crunch/smokey BBQ flavor. Kinda reminded me of a nestle crunch bar, just not as textured. You do get a BBQ chip after taste though... pretty unique. I quite enjoyed it
Day 6 - Trader Joe's Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Bites. Figured I'd switch it up today and try something different. Had 3 of the mini bars. Creamy cheesecake bites with blueberry and graham cracker sprinkles. Very tasty, but too small and not worth the cals for the size IMO. Also Greek Yogurt bowl with 450g Fage, 350g Frozen Blueberries, 70 Dark Chocolate Crunch Cheerios & 30g TJ Crunchy Cookie Butter
Day 7 - Chocolove Salted Peanut in Milk Chocolate. This one was great.... nice mix of creamy, salty, and sweet (giggity). Frozen of course for extra added to texture to the peanut halves found throughout :P. Also, another Greek Yogurt Bowl for preworkout with Fage, Dark Chocolate Cheerios and All Bran.
Day 8 - Chocolove Raspberries in Dark Chocolate - Yummy combination of the dark chocolate flavor with a tartness of freeze dried raspberry pieces all throughout which provide a nice crunchy texture. Enjoyed frozen as usual
Day 9 - Breyer's Blasts! Strawberry Cheesecake w/ Lucky Charms. Hah! Nothing fancy going on here... was super lazy and kinda screwed up my macros so I needed to opt for something on the lower fat side. I remembered I still had some of the Breyer's left over from before starting the 30 day pint a day challenge. This combo was pretty good! 339g Breyer's w/ 57g Lucky Charms.
Day 10 - A whole buncha stuff. Finished off the remaining 3 TJ Blueberry Cheesecake Icecream bites. Also had 4 Cups Cappuccino Kefir topped w/ All Bran & 110g Vanilla Chex, and 3 Honey Nut Rice Cakes topped w/ Cinnamon Bun Whey spread. Lazypostworkoutprebedmeal/10
Day 11 - Lindt Dark Hazelnut. Made a quick grab for a candy bar while across the street at Walgreens. Hadn't had Lindt candy in a while do I decided to give it a whirl. Not too bad... standard Dark Chocolate taste, more on the sweet side though. Sectioned into 3 portions with a hazelnut and some sort of mousse like filling inside. Also had some Dark Chocolate Crunch Cheerios.
Day 12 - Fannie May Pixies - Made another quick stop across the street from work at Walgreens today because I'm going to be busy later. Opted for the Pixies since it's been years since I've had anything by them. Not a fan of mint meltaway's so I opted for the Pixies. Figured I couldn't go wrong with a combo of pecans, caramel, and chocolate. I was correct.
Day 13 - Chocolove Toffee & Almonds in Milk Chocolate. Pretty good, but a little too sweet for my liking... Personally, I'm a bigger fan of Dark Chocolate so the combo of toffee and milk chocolate was quite extensive. Nice crunch and salt from the almonds though. I would recommend this one if you're a fan of milk chocolate & toffee.
Day 14 - Chocolate Truffle Kefir topped with Vanilla Chex & Triple Decker Toasted Salted Almond Butter/Sea Salted Caramel Truffle Sandwich. How's that one? Ok so.... The Kefir was a let down. The flavor sounded like it would kick *kitten* in theory, but it didn't even taste like chocolate.. thankfully the Vanilla Chex was there as a savior. I need to just sticky with the fruity flavors because the vanilla, chocolates, cappuccino etc all suck! On to the sandwich... marvelous! Used three slices of Martin's Potato bread and lathered two of the slices with TJ Salted almond butter. Placed two Sea Salted Caramel Truffles and then put it on my foreman grill for about 2 mins like a panini maker. Perfecto
Day 15 - Peanut Butter Brownie - This is actual a store bought brownie from the Bakery section. They had a few different flavors to select from, Cookie n Cream, PB, 2x Chocolate, etc. So, being a PB predator I figured it would be a great buy. A+ :P..... Moist, chewy and peanut buttery. So good, especially for a store bought one.
Day 16 - Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Truffle Bar - Very rich Dark Chocolate flavor. Quite yummy and filling, but nothing out of the ordinary... not much else to say about this one!
Day 17 - 2 Sea Salted Caramels, w/ 120g Vanilla Chex. Nothing special today... was in a hurry last night so I planned poorly and had to scrap together dem macros.
Day 18 - Peanut Butter Brownie - Repeat here, so no pics. Have 2 of em left and need to finish them off.
Day 19 - Yasso Vanilla Bean Greek Yogurt (whole box). Posted pic of whole dinner... 6 eggs of 683g yellow potato, 4 Yasso Greek Yogurt Vanilla Bean bars, 64g salted almond butter on 2 Martin's potato rolls, and 36g Vanilla Chex (not pictured)
Day 20 - Chocolate Truffle Kefir, PB Brownie & PB Cheerios Bowl of Deliciousness.
Day 21 - Chocolove Cherries & Almond in Dark Chocolate. Good one! Not overly sweet, with a handful of different textures. crunchy almonds, chewie cherry pieces and additional crunch from frozen chocolate. Really enjoyed this one from the Chocolove line.
Day 22 - Kozyshack Cinnamon Raisin Rice Pudding w/ Cinnamon Bun Dymatize Whey. Spotted this at the grocery store so I decided to give it a whirl. Been a while since I had Rice Pudding and this one looked yummy. I had it as a post workout "meal" so I decided to throw in some extra Cinnamon Bun Whey. Great combo!
Day 23 - Blue Bunny Flan Ice Cream - Good creamy texture as usual with all Blue Bunny Ice Cream. Not that big of a fan of the flavor though... some of the caramel swirl had an icy texture too it, which was kinda weird. Not bad, but certainly not my favorite. Oh well.
Day 24 - 4 Hawaiian Bread Rolls & Fage Greek Yogurt dusted with Gingerbread Granola & Two Sea Salted Caramel Truffles. For the pre-workout :P
Day 25 - Edy's German Chocolate Cake Spectacular - Very Good! It ranks below the Talenti German Chocolate cake, but this is quite tasty especially for 150 cals per serving. Rich Chocolate base with a very creamy texture, cake pieces, coconut flakes and a caramel swirl. It's a seasonal item, so if you find it and haven't had it... give it a go!
Day 26 - 4 Confetti Cupcake Poptarts - I'll spare you guys the picture since everyone knows what they look like. They were tasty as fuark tho. As I mentioned earlier, I kinda screwed up my macros and had like 300+ carbs left for my second meal with only like 30g protein.. so I needed something high carb/low protein. Enter poptarts.
Day 27 - Chocolove Almonds & Sea Salt in Dark Chocolate - Really good! Nice cocoa flavor, not overly sweet. Crunchy texture from the almonds, and salty after taste (giggity) from the sea salt. Good stuffs!
Day 28 - Salted Almond Butter Confetti Cupcake Poptart Sammich - Picture can speak for itself ;D

ETA: Nom. Oh, my nom.

Ooooh, nice! On finding it was too sweet, I would have salted it. :blushing:
Breakfast-- banana cake with brown butter icing
This was really really good. Brown butter is my new baking obsession so I was excited to try it in icing form. My only complaint is that it was a *little* too sweet for first thing in the a.m. Next time I might do half the icing or maybe we'll just save it to be dessert.0 -
French toast made with challah, WOW that sounds good.Day 28 - Cannoli French toast (with some mini chocolate chips and made with challah bread). Delicious.

Excited about tonight. Nothing new but Fairway did have Talenti - German Chocolate Cake again. Oh it's on.
Someone in this thread already tried to shake me down for my pint. Names won't be named.
FYI - My guard dog chihuahua is on duty. Unfortunately he did get neutered yesterday and he's not doing a very good job today. I'm considering docking his pay.
Talk about adding insult to injury! :laugh:0 -

Well. I thought I had it in me to participate for 30 days. But at some point I had to force it. That was unexpected and new, so while the challenge itself became a personal fiasco, having the heureka moment that I don't need something sweet every day showed me how far I've come. A while ago, I'd have expected me to be the last woman standing in this endeavour, but not anymore.
Kudos to all participants, it's been with pleasure that I've watched your photos, and thanks for having me the first half of the challenge!0 -

Day 5 - One fourth of a chocolate Easter bunny (I ate his ears today) - In actuality, that should be 1/5 of a chocolate bunny (To be specific it's a Mr. Rockstar with star shaped sprinkles in it), when I was dividing up into portion sizes, I got 5 portions for the total grams it said on serving was.
Day 6 - One fifth of my chocolate bunny - I have his head to enjoy today (that sounds really morbid)
Day 7 - One fifth of my chocolate bunny - Today I had the rest of his ears and a bit of one foot

Day 9 - FIVE Risen caramel candies. I can NOT resist them today! grumble However, considering I have had breakfast and lunch and still have over 600 calories left (not counting my exercise calories), I think it won't matter if I have more, or if something else gets added in.

Oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip slice
I kind of feel that I stuffed up this weekend with the whole concept of this - fitting in all the sweets into the calorie/macro limits. Looking at what I ate over the weekend, I am going to PRETEND that I ate what I ate nice and sensibly, portion controlled and fitting into my daily limits over the next few days, which will get me up to the Day 30. Thanks for the challenge - it was good to share some time with you all!0 -
