    is this... for... real... ? :bigsmile: if i chose ice cream. i eat one pint a day but all the other meals are veggies/healthy food?????

    You don't have to just choose one, and you don't have to eat a pint per day.

    What I do is prelog my food to hit my macros and get in my veggie servings. Then with the leftover calories I plan in my dessert.


    Sometimes I put the dessert in first. But then if my macros don't come out right I have to adjust.

    You eat real food throughout the day.

    You have enough calories left over (after workouts and hitting your macros) that you can have a real treat that fits in your calorie allotment.

    Some of us do pints (I'm assuming most of these people are bulking, but I might be wrong!) and some do less. All of us write it down.

    I'm definitely not bulking and I'm not at maintenance either. I'm eating at a deficit and losing weight.

    It's all about moderation and balancing your calories and macros properly.

    No need to avoid sweets or treats. Eat all the foods you love, be a happy person, lose weight, win.

    Day one: I had half of a mini Black Forest buttercream cake I got from the farmers market. Amazing!
    Day two: the other half of the cake with half of a serving of chocolate peanut butter ice cream from the local ice cream shop!
    Day three: mini eggs and some sweetened condensed milk in tea (the perfect pick me up!)

    I know it's not a sweet but to me it's a "treat", I've been eating this:

    It's an Irish Porter cheese and it may look weird but it's so so good.
    I've also been eating some delicious brie with homemade hot pepper jelly (so I'm combining my sweets with savoury).

    Day 1- Chocolove Chilies and Cherries in Dark Chocolate.
    Day 2 - Talenti Raspberries and Cream and Chocolove Raspberries in Dark Chocolate. I wanted ice cream and chocolate and decided to go with a theme. The ice cream was ok, not one of my favorite flavors. I really like the Chocolove chocolate itself, it is very creamy. Didn't get a whole lot of raspberry flavor, which was sad. Would still eat both again.

    Love it. Haven't been able to find that Talenti yet. It's like the only one I haven't had, other than hazelnut

    Day 1: Gooey butter cake (original) leftover from a bbq
    Day 2: finished off the original gooey butter cake (so sad) and now have only chocolate flavor left which isn't nearly as good as it should be. Reminds me of brownies that didn't rise and have been sitting out? Maybe I can crumble it over ice cream tomorrow....

    Today while I was out hiking I was thinking of different things to make to get me through 30 days. Galaktoboureko was at the top of the list.

    Day 1: Peanut Bismarck, Kroger Cherry Cordial ice cream

    Can you describe a peanut bismarck for me? I had a "peanut roll" from our local bakery yesterday and was having a heck of a time finding anything remotely similar in the MFP database. Mine was basically a danish with white icing and chopped peanuts sprinkled in. Delicious...

    A bismarck is basically a cream filled donut. According to wiki "bismarck" is the name used in the midwest and western Canada.

    So the peanut bismarck... imagine a Boston Creme doughnut, but the cream is peanut butter and it is topped with chopped peanuts. I did not find one in the MFP database, so I used a chocolate bismarck... mainly because it happened to be in my "recent" list.
