Hunger Games Diet Week # 4: The End is Near….

3 May

Well, this next week will mark a month on the Hunger Games Diet and I have won the battle for now!  

 I’m going from the “Hunger” plan to the ” HELP” plan moving forward. HELP stands for Healthy Eating Lifestyle Plan. The key to this little plan is….HAVE A PLAN!  Cause if I don’t have a plan,  I’m sure more likely to go gorge myself on whatever is convenient such as chocolate cakes, fast food, candy bars, slurpies, and doughnuts.  Planning is essential:)

However, I am sure that you people grow tired of looking at what I like to eat, so this will be my last meal plan post  (unless ya’ll have grown dependent on them, if so speak up).

You know what to do now: plan healthy, drink water, keep your portions in check, indulge… but don’t lick the plate. Simple:)

Guilt Free Cupcakes With Secret Ingredient….

30 Apr

We were having company in town this weekend and I didn’t want to starve them out on my Hunger Games Diet, so I went hunting for a low-calorie, low-fat dessert alternative and this is what I found, Diet Sprite Funfetti cupcakes.

This is an instance where the name truly says it all cause the only two ingredients in these little fellows are Funfetti cake mix and diet Sprite…ahhh..the secret ingredient.

You dump your  box of cake mix in a bowl and add about 10 ounces of diet Sprite, stir it up and bake it.

I was a bit hesitant about this deal until I tried it, but they are actually very good. They have a lightly chewy brownie consistency and didn’t have the dietey taste I expected from the Sprite. They also taste a little like cake batter, which I love.  I did sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top to mimic frosting.

Apparently, you can make any cupcake or brownie with this method using diet Coke, Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew…basically match the color of your cake batter with the soda.

Let’s break this down shall we:

Regular Funfetti Cupcake with frosting= 240 calories

Funfetti Cupcake no Frosting=150 calories

Diet Sprite Funfetti Cupcake no topping = 60 calories ( yep)

My cupcakes went over great, too bad though that I completely went food crazy this weekend with potato salad, french fries, BBQ and Pizza. There I’VE SAID IT and I’m blaming it all on my company. Thank goodness it’s Monday.

Have a sweet week:)
