Interesting idea! I will have to give this a shot.
Hello Heidi! Thank you for the re-tweet for my birthday this past wednesday! I was so excited that Extreme Makeover Weightloss was on the night of my birthday, I decided to stay home and not celebrate! Boy, am I ever glad I did… Alyssa’s story touched me in so many ways I never thought possible! I, too, am a “silent” recovering food addict/food binger. For the first time ever, I have connected personally with one of yours and Chris’s clients on a very touching level. So many people were surprised when Alyssa declined Chris’s offer to receive additional help after the show… but I understood
Alyssa’s decision completely. As addicts, we tend to make light of any situation concerning ourselves. We don’t like to be in the spot light, for fear of failure, perhaps. I have struggled with a weight gain of over 150+ pounds after my daughter passed away in 2002. That was the most devastating day of my life, and MY life ceased to exist after that. It’s been a long process for me, but I have managed to shed almost 50 pounds since 2010. More importantly, I am working daily on my eating disorder, although it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done, I’m still making progress. It’s slow, but I’m moving forward. I am so proud of Alyssa. I found her on Twitter and FB, and saw her updated story on OMG! Insider last night… so happy to see that she finally took you guys up on your offer for further help. I’d love to see her get the skin removal surgery she so deserves! I understand the fact that it took her more then a year to lose the weight, so there for she is not eligible for the surgery any more. But I truely understand the difficulties with weightloss when you are a food addict: Food is the ONE addiction that you cannot remove yourself from. We need food to live! It’s around every corner, it’s in virtually every store, food signs are everywhere! It truely takes a strong soul to recover from a food addiction. I’m working on my steadily… I can never bring my beloved daughter back, but I can continue to work on myself. I hope to one day reach my goal weight and be able to view life in “color” again on a daily basis. You and Chris, as well as all of your contestants give me hope. Thank you for that! I appreciate you so much. I am so grateful for all that you guys do.
Respectfully,
Kymberly “Kaptain” Morgan
Thank you so much for sharing. These look so yummy! Can these be eaten on a low carb day? Please, please say that they can be!!
Thanks for this fantastic recipe! Can’t wait to have my kids help me make them!
These look so yummy. I grabbed this recipe along with the brownie recipe from a couple days ago. Can’t wait to try them out with the kids and hubby! Is there a recipe to make these in quantity or just remix remix remix?
I can’t wait to make these! I was wondering if they would be as good if I used xylitol? Thanks for the recipe!
You and Chris are so inspirational!!! I just ordered my bod.e products and I can’t wait for them to arrive!!
Can’t wait to try these! Perfect for a birthday treat for me this weekend!
I need a LOT of these sweet ideas because I really want to get my children on a healthier menu as well and they sure do love their treats!
