"Eat All The Sweets" - A 30 Day Tale of Love & Happiness

It was intended to be 30 days but it went so well the participants decided another 30 days was in order. So it continues. Everyone is welcomed but remember, no fake stuff, no cauliflower.

Glad I had brussel sprouts instead :P
Day 30: 3 segments of Terry's chocolate orange and frozen vanilla yoghurt with mixed berries
Day 31: slither of vanilla and also sliver of chocolate-hazelnut halva, the real stuff. Yum!
Day 32: Homemade apricot and cinnamon bread, half a limited edition ganache Cherry Ripe chocolate bar, something else later

So what are the rules? is it in a post I missed?

Original post from part 1 from LolBro

Well.... it's that time again... 

After the wild success of the "30 Day Gelato | Ice Cream Cleanse Diet"....we're going to broaden the horizons now and welcome new ideas. 

Here's What's Up 

-Pick your poison for the day - You choose your destiny be it : Ice Cream, Cake, Cookies, Chocolates, Candies, Pies, Brownies, etc. It is all up to you! 
-You choose the serving size (size doesn't matter here)! We all have different caloric needs, so as with the last 30 Day Ice Cream Cleanse, I'm fully aware not everyone can fit multiple servings! 
-No fake knock off's like Arctic Zero, or that other wannabe stuff! 
-Feel free to create and contribute your own recipes to share (no Cauliflower)! 

The whole point is to eat foods you enjoy while still seeing amazing progress. Step outside of your palate zone and try something new. If you want, you can even review it. I'll keep my reviews consistent as with the last thread. Here's what I'm working with for starters. I won't stick with Chocolate throughout the entire 30 days, but I've really been interested in forcing myself to test out all of these unique flavors I keep seeing.

It was intended to be 30 days but it went so well the participants decided another 30 days was in order. So it continues. Everyone is welcomed but remember, no fake stuff, no cauliflower.

Oh hey, I like this. I'll start my next 30 days tomorrow

Glad I had brussel sprouts instead :P

Hope this works

This is only a third serve, but I had a half today


Not enough apricot and sultanas, will add more next time.


homemade choc chip and chopped hazelnut cookies

Yesterday: Chobani apple and cinnamon Greek yoghurt

Today: My husband gave me a challenge a few weeks ago to find a particular flavour of German ginger cookies he had once around Christmas time. Today I tried two different recipes, one with brown sugar (Gerwutzplazchen) and one with white sugar (Pfeffernusse). And we also made a white chocolate cheesecake with a white chocolate and macadamia cookie crust and caramel swirl. All very yummy! And only slightly over my calories today, but I was about 400 under yesterday, so it all evens out.

I had the Talenti Caribbean Coconut Gelato pops tonight. Plural. So yummy I had to have two and come tell you all about it. I will be getting a pint of that on our next gelato run.

And I also ate cauliflower today.

It's like a Mounds bar on a stick. Only better.

It's next on my list!

Yum, cinnamon buns. Going to have to decide on a homemade recipe for these. Years ago Cinnabon use to be here in Australia, but sadly no more.

Will post picture later but it was really good for a supermarket brand ice cream. Subtle lemon flavour with these beautifully crunchy mini meringue pieces and smooth flavour.
