Here ya gohttp://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...heesecake.html (pumpkin cheesecake)

Using Fitday I got 10.58 total (8.53 net carbs) per mini cheesecake. I think you could put this into a well greased up pie tin OR a silicone baking round (we made "deep dish" sausage pizza last night in it) if you didn't have mini pie tins. Just make sure to cut it into 6 or more slices. Any more and it would be a little too high carb for me

Sheila's Kick-Bottom Induction Pumpkin Mini Cheesecakes

Makes 6 mini cheesecakes
9 total (or 4.9 net) carbs per mini-cheesecake

2 (8-oz.) packages cream cheese
1 (15-oz.) can 100% pure pumpkin
1 cup heavy cream
2 beaten eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ tsp. ground nutmeg (optional)
½ tsp. salt
6 packets Splenda
6 mini pie tins (supermarkets, dollar stores)

Smooth ingredients together in mixing bowl, incorporating eggs last. Transfer to 6
Pam-sprayed mini pie shells. 400° for 15 minutes; then 350° for approximately 35 additional
minutes, or until done.

8. Spend just a couple minutes writing out where you see yourself in 3 months [after the holidays].

I will be in 'onderland' by the new year, I have no doubt. I plan to be in 'onderland,' in the gym, on the road starting to run, and in the clothing stores not hating trying on clothes!

I see myself moving up the rungs slowly & continuing to lose weight slowly. I see myself planning ahead for the holidays which should be interesting~~~my kids are home for the first time in 3 years. They are both asking for old family favorites which I will of course make for them. I see myself having established an exercise routine that works for me. I see myself continuing to heal emotionally from the "stuff" that got me the point of being overweight. I also continue to see myself active on ADBB!!

Hi everyone

I am so sorry that I have not been able to join in with this challenge after signing up for it. Due to family problems I have only been able to visit ADBB for short periods to do my 'mod' duties and I have not had time off-line to do the assignments, though I have been re-reading my DANDR and thinking about my responses to the set tasks.

I am so proud of you all for committing to the challenge and carrying out the assignments with such enthusiasm and insight which makes this thread a joy to read.

Also many thanks to Jo (jimmie 48 ) for leading the challenge so well and encouraging us all in her inimitable fashion ADBB is blessed to have her as a member and moderator
