I went to the store last night and bought everything I need to make my high-fat loading yummies. Since I didn't have time to get everything made for today, I decided to wait until tomorrow to start loading. I narrowed down my choices and will be making cheesecake, refrigerator fudge, 7-layer dip, guacamole, chocolate nutty delight, egg nog, buffalo chicken dip, and maybe fat fast parfait. It still sounds like too much - doesn't it? :)
I entered a mock day in MyFitnessPal yesterday and came up with 10,000 calories! Yikes! But it was 73% fat. The part I had trouble with was getting my protein to be more than my carbs. I think that is because I was trying to add in some "normal" food like pizza that I really miss. So it's still a work in progress, but I am excited to give it a try!
I decided to go ahead and make the cinnamon rolls today and have them pre-loading instead of during loading because they were throwing my percentages off. Here is a picture of the two I am getting ready to eat.
They are made with Carbquik and Erythritol and Xyltol. I used a Bisquick recipe that I adapted and the dough was a little crumbly but the finished product tastes great. I love cinnamon rolls and I usually have some for loading - so I think this is a great alternative. I'll try to post the recipe I ended up with soon. They are P3-friendly!!
I made the refrigerator fudge last night and it is not quite what I expected. It tastes a lot like chocolate cheesecake so I'm not complaining - it's just different. It does have a gritty taste because I used granular xylitol. I really should have powdered it first - live and learn. But it's still edible. And high-fat. :)
So sometime today I still need to make 7-layer dip, chocolate nutty delight, buffalo chicken dip, and cheesecake. Busy busy.
