2/3 cup white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed bananas
1 egg
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup milk
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine bananas, egg, melted butter and milk.
Stir banana mixture into flour mixture until blended. Be careful not to over mix.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Pour batter into 9x13 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean. (It will have some melted chocolate, but no crumbs.)

It wasn't a good day for me.
I was over 27 calories. I did not drink enough water and feel really bad about all the food I ate.
But, I did the challenge including the extra mile, and walked an extra 1.5 for the team.0 -

Friday the 12th was a rest day and not enough water and over on calories.
Saturday (i hate to admit) was another rest day and i ate horribly. Im feeling all gross about everything I ate.
Sunday back on the right track with eating and water. I am going to do all the exercises from Friday and Saturday today to make myself feel a bit better about eating so bad. I should NEVER make cheesecake again. It was so good I couldnt stop eating it.0 -
