Middle of the week. 
Walked today but only 2.7 miles.
Eats today:
coffee + almond milk
protein shake
turkey with veggies
eggplant lasagna
cheese sticks

 

No really, how long?

For me, the first three days make me bat-sh*t crazy with desire to eat sugar.

Then, it's still bumpy for two more weeks.

Then, pretty smooth sailing until I encounter something really verboten and carbtastic, l**** chocolate-chip cookies, homemade, fresh from the oven (not my oven, I promise!)

Thanks Babe..

 Hala, I'm so sorry about your BF's loss.  He is very lucky to have you supporting him at this time.

S:  none
L: sliced turkey, sashimi
S: two protein bars (not healthy, but I was on the go)
D: a green pepper

lol... I do not follow a recipe... and I use whey proteins (About time whey) to make the cake.

The simplest is same as for the flax muffin: 

1 egg, 1/4 cup protein powder. sweetener., 1 tsp almond milk, 1/4 tsp backing soda. To add some moisture - you can add 1 tsp oil or butter (melted) or coconut oil.  Mix all - microwave for 2-3 min. 

For a cake I used : (approximately)
2 eggs
1/4 cup almond oil
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
stevia (I used liquid - app 1-2 Tbs)

then mix 
1 cup protein powder with 2 tsp backing powder. 

mix the wet stuff, add the dry stuff and mix well.  needs to be a pudding like consistency. If too thick - add egg or egg whites, if too thin add proteins or flax meal.

Pour into backing dish... I dropped some cubed peaches inside. 
Bake at 375 for 20 -30 min.  

For cookies - I use the same base batter, then add fillers to make it thick: nuts, flax seeds, flax meal, protein crisps (see link).  Let it stand for 15-20 min. The flax meal will absorb some of the liquids - and then you can scoop the cookies on backing sheet and bake. 

I make a mixture of nuts seeds, protein crisps - the add to the batter as mixture. For cookies - need to add more sweetener. the fillers are not sweet - so need more to get sweet cookies. 
Pinch of salt is needed for the cake or the cookies. 

You can use splenda or splenda based syrups (Torani, DaVinci) as sweeteners (I can't tolerate splenda).  add flavors if you want.  Cake batter can be also make with nuts added, or with some fruits, or make as muffins.
