Yea, I was really bad at lunch that day, but ate very sensibly for breakfast and had a very light dinner. Plus did 60 minutes of walking and 30 minutes of pushing it cardio at the gym. Ironically, I did end that day only a little over my planned Calorie allotment.
I weigh myself right after binge eating.. motivates to lose the water weight before I get all comfortable..
Recipe is Costco recipe book that they give to members the day after thanksgiving, baked by darling daughter, whole wheat and brown sugar substituted appropriately, toffee chips from Trader Joes 8) I will take a picture of the recipe tomorrow and post it. It's soooo good :-*
Have you tried freezing the dough? The recipe is for a 9x9 pan making 9 servings, each of 3x3 inches. I wonder if the dough freezes up okay or if the fruit gets too mushy.
I crunched the ingredients and from a calorie count, it's really not that bad, but having an entire pan sitting there would be doom.
What was the calorie count? If it's handy, please do share.
Yes, entire pan sitting there is just doom. I try to buy desserts in single serves. Better than wondering where to cut, or how much to scoop. Freezing.. never tried! I think next time I will ask her cut the recipe in half- then it's only 4.5 servings, between the four of us we should be fine with .5 extra serving

Friday Update:
This week's loss: 1 measely lb. ???
Total loss since 4/10: 10 lbs. + a few oz. Yay!
I want to keep the mojo going since hitting this first milestone so I plan to avoid restaurant dining on Mother's Day this weekend. Instead, I'll take the boys out to a place they've been wanting to go that is fun for them and involves playing, walking, standing i.e. calorie burning (name omitted.)

Mother's day.. apple and pear brownies served with a dollop of "original" vanilla ice cream. Serving size? I have no clue.. I ate like I deserved it My scale is not broken. This morning it danced around and pointed in a whole new direction. Number barrier broken.. to the dark side. Of course it's all water weight

Here is the recipe. I don't like cutting on butter, but I do sub whole wheat/ brown sugar in almost everything that I make. Brown sugar tastes better
