You're rolling along just great Rob. I have ice cream cravings too - and funnily enough I have rarely been able to eat it because I have extra sensitive teeth and anything icey cold gives me a humdinger of an instant headache - but I have made up a yummy chocolate / avocado mousse (w hav 3 avo trs) for craving times. Trouble is my partner will gobble it all up if I leave some in the fridge! I warn you that it is very more-ish! Other fruits could be substituted, of course.

Odille's Avocado / Chocolate Mousse
(I find about 50-70 g is an ample serve, but 100g is a nice even number to calculate the carbs count. I measure most of my foodstuffs to 100g, then just work it out from there after weighing.)

Ingredients
250g Avocado Shepard/Fuerte preferred
1.5 tbsp Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon, ground
1 cup (250ml) Cream, fluid, heavy whipping
25g bar ark chocolat (I us Aldi 85% Moser Roth)
1/4 tsp stevia or a som honey to taste

Method
Mix all ingredients in food processor/blender (dark choc needs to stand out at room temp for a couple of hours beforehand). Divide into bowls or glasses and chill in the fridge. Top with shaved dark chocolate or mint leaves. Makes 4-6 serves and is veryrich.
(Note it is NOT very sweet, I am not a big sweet eater. If you want it sweeter, a some honey or some extra sweetener)

Nutrition pr 100g Serving (but I could only eat half a serve, I found, as it is so rich)

Energy - 288 calories
Carbs - 4g
Fiber - 1.5g
Sugars - 1.3
Fat - 30g
Protein - 2.6g

Day 14

Exercise: 1 ˝ mile telephone pole sprints.

Food:

Breakfast – whey protein shake with keifer and blueberries
Lunch – chicken and left over veggies
Supper – chicken breast and a slice of cheese

Thoughts: Sprints seemed a bit short this morning, thinking about keeping the distance and increasing the length 2:1 (2 length sprinting/1 length walking) Another good day overall, doing well, feeling even better!

Thanks for the tip! I may try that here this week, school sked allowing!
