    I want to try protein fluff it sounds right up my alley :) I am really hot on Halo Top Ice Cream right now. My kids like breyer's mint chip and a 1/2 cup portion just doesn't work for me.

    So easy to make -- I added PB2 to mine as well :)

    Food.
    Eating anything that isn't food could be unhealthy.

    Recipe for "protein fluff" you ladies are talking about! Would love to try! I have a sweet tooth too...Mine is microwaved peanut butter with a dallop of icecream...I usually clock it around 400 calories, but for me it's worth EVERY SINGLE ONE!

    I used 1/2 scoop whey
    1/2 cup of skim milk (it called for whole milk, though)
    1/4 tsp of xantham gum (I think the more you use, the more "fluffier" it'll be. I stuck with the 1/4 tsp and mine wasn't really all that fluffy)
    1 cup of mixed berries

    I didn't find mine to be all that sweet, so I added 2 packets of Stevia and 1 TBSP of PB2!

    Absolutely delish and the macros were 185 calories/2 grams fat/20 grams carbs/18 grams protein

    hope you enjoy :)

    Yasso frozen yogurt bars. 100 calories per bar (the bars aren't tiny either) and positively delicious. No flavor sacrificed for calories.

    I buy frozen slices apples and I nuke them and then add some extra low fat cool whip, pumpkin pie spice on top. I like the frozen because they're more economical and you don't have to cook them to be mushy ($3.00 for a bag at wal-mart).;

    Klondike is my favorite desert but if I need more volume, I do 150g of grapes, 150 grams of berries or a banana and top with cool whip.

    Quest bar softened in the microwave. The double chocolate chunk and s'mores flavors are AMAZING when hot. Also try Trutein magic pudding, it's delicious.

    I don't worry about dessert being healthy. I eat a balanced diet, make sure I get the nutrients and macros I am aiming for, and dessert is... dessert.

    With half pumpkin...I do miss my yonanas!

    I don't do pumpkin spice anything, but I do love the availability of pumpkin desserts this time of year!
