    I took the 30 day gelato cleanse challenge. I gained 7 pounds.

    Seriously I work in a gelato factory.

    I work in a bakery and have about 30 pints of ice cream and gelato in my freezer. I participated in the 30 day gelato & ice cream cleanse (and i also ate gelato, ice cream, baked goods, and a lot of other sweets every day for months prior to that) and haven't gained a single pound.

    it is not what you ate that caused you to gain weight, it is how many calories you consumed.

    I really wish you guys would have been around when I asked for advice and was told on this forum that I will never lose weight, because I had a lemonade and sweet potato fries one day.

    Day 5. Mint thingies, few white-chocolate miniature bars.

    Day 1: Brown Butter Snickerdoodles (2), Edy's slow churned vanilla with a sprinkle of cinnamon
    Day 2: 3 brown butter snickerdoodles, 1 serving of Breyer's triple chocolate gelato, and one rolo
    Day 3: one serving of B&J Mississippi Mud Pie and one serving of Talenti Sea Salt Caramel
    Day 4: Edy's slow churned french silk.
    Day 5: Okay before I tell ya'll about my sweets for the day, I'd like to preface by saying that I had surgery this morning and I felt like absolute crap all day. I do not normally eat this much in one day, and I didn't hit my protein goal (first time in ages). That said-- I had a small DQ midnight truffle blizzard (I adore these and they're my go-to after a particularly sucky medical procedure):

    d56a34a3-428d-4583-b239-1a8b19b968df_zps610b9772.jpg

    Then I had my scone from the local tea shop. It was dusted with powdered sugar when I bought it yesterday but today the sugar had dissolved. It was heart shaped but I bit off a corner before I remembered to take a picture. Also it was served with jam and clotted cream. Delicious.

    Then Mr. Acrylics went to pick it my meds up for me and when he got back he had B&J Milk and Cookies-- my favorite. I couldn't not have any after he went to the trouble. :blushing:

    Oh wow, that shouldn't happen. I'm not surprised you had so much sweet stuff to eat. Are you okay now?

    Acrylics, I idolize you!!!! Hope you have a speedy recovery also.

    I was going to plan a great dessert for tonight but then I dropped off a patient at the hospital and it turns out it's Nurses week. And what did they have? Tons of cookies. I had to grab a chocolate chip and a PB cookie. Damn cookies ruined my plans. The funniest part was as I'm grabbing cookies the nurses were surprised I eat sweets and they all wanted to see pictures of me when I was fat.

    :blushing:

    Were the cookies good?

    Yeah I'm better, thank you. :heart:

    It's actually happened to me twice. Apparently I'm not particularly sensitive to anesthesia.

    You ate cookies in the middle of the day? How about all those unwanted sugar cravings you had to deal with all day? I don't even....

  • I did get a huge sugar rush instead of driving patients to the hospital the rest of the day, I put them on my back and carried them there. Mother f'ing cookie power.

    Everything about this makes me happy. Also makes me want a cookie.
