Well...almost cheesecake...
I buy
1 box of white chocolate sugar free jello
1 box cheesecake sugar free jello
1 jar of cherries/or fresh strawberries (I prefer cherry)
1 half gallon of skim milk (don't try almond milk, it comes out very soupy!) Use recommended amount. I use 3 cups to make it more thick, like cheesecake

I dump both packages of sugar free jello into my vitamix (you can use food processor, or by hand) and add milk, it blends for about two minutes then I put in a container. When I'm ready to eat I put some in a bowl, add cherries and a splash of cherry juice and ENJOY! The serving sizes are big, but there is 70 calories per 8 grams or 1/4 of 1 package. No fat and 6 carbs. The cherries are 7 calories and 2 carbs per cherry, I put 2-3 cherries in and a splash of the syrup....and it is TASTY!

    ... or how about eating the real stuff, making it fit your macros and plan the rest of your day / calories accordingly?

    Posters often complain about criticism of their fake food recipes, but there would be much less of it if there were fewer B.S. topic titles like this. Just say "Jello recipe" rather than cheesecake. This sounds gross to me but whatever floats your boat.

    The real stuff is 1,000 calories and 80 carbs... I highly suggest not eating the real stuff abadvat. Eating the real stuff is why most of us here! I'm on an 800 calorie a day diet so if I ate the real stuff I couldn't eat for the rest of the day and have to work off 200 calories at the gym!

    Seriously if you have nothing nice to say go take our your anger at the gym instead of trying to harass people who are positively working for their goal. Wait loss is frustrating enough, if you don't like the idea don't try it. But if you haven't tried it don't tell me or other people it sounds gross. I've been dieting for 3 months and lost 25 pounds so be nasty all you want, what I have been doing is WORKING for me :)

    I would try it, but use chocolate instead. I hateee the cheesecake pudding mix. It tastes funky, but the chocolate with some strawberries, that sounds good!!

    Your comment is very rude .If you don't care for this recipe, just don't make it and stay away from this thread. OP may have to control her sugar intake, so this is a better choice than a sugar and calorie dense cheese cake.

    I have not tried the cheesecake flavor alone, I mix everything lol! I have tried white chocolate alone and it's good! I will try with chocolate too, I tried chocolate fudge and it was good, and the pistachio was ok. Another thing I like to do is get peach and strawberry sugar free jello and the no sugar added fruit cocktail by del monte :) the fruit cocktail is 80 calories for the whole 14.5oz can and 10 carbs, the jello is 40 calories for 1 whole box and 0 carbs. I'd say each serving is 24 calories and 3.3 carbs! I make the jello in layers too so I make one package with the juice from the can instead of water (adds extra flavor), add half the can of fruit, let it refrigerate then do the same for the next layer. Perfect night snack to keep me away from the husbands junk food!

    You all are inspiring and keep up the positive attitudes, we all could give each other the boost we need :)

    If you don't like the recipe don't make, but to call it gross is rude. I consider donuts and fast food gross, but I would never insult anybody that decides to eat that stuff or post pictures.

    There are more BS topics in MFP, specially the ones with horny pictures and sexy implications which in my opinion don't belong in a fitness forum, so go ahead and if it floats your boat post in them.

    I'm not here to lose weight. When I am losing I just eat less of the things I truly enjoy rather than eating the same anount of substitutes. I love high quality new recipes, so your title suckered me in. If you don't want criticism then don't put up fake thread titles.

    I love how sensitive the fake food crowd is. I simply told the OP that if she doesn't want criticism then don't post misleading thread titles. I'm terribly sorry that pictures of people with less clothing on a fitness website offends you. Perhaps, you should go back to church and beg forgiveness from your god or something for seeing them. I'm sure your eyes and soul burn from it all.

    Your lack of class and respect. and your narrow minded view of moral values are so evident, that I will not even bother responding to your comment any further. Have a good day.

    Yes I do, but feel free to experiment if you do not like cherries! I like bebubble's comment to also try mango and peach!

    Only 800 calories?!
    Are you here to get healthy or just lose weight? Because that's not nearly enough to support your organs, let alone satisfy hunger!
    Not that you need to eat the "real stuff" (the point is that you want something that tastes good, so this recipe, if you like it, is good for that!) but you should probably up your calorie goals, maybe go see a doctor or nutritionist to set something more reasonable.
