i am now addicted to the recipe above and I am wondering if it’s a no no of diet. I guess my question is, is it fattening?

Can you post the recipe and how many servings it makes, I am intrigued to know what it is but don’t click on links unless I can verify them as genuine.

What is it? I can’t open a Facebook link.

Protein 'cheesecake'

Well anything is fattening if it had a lot of calories and you eat too much of it. I’m not working out the nutritional value of it, perhaps you could?

i have taken screenshots of the recipes

It’s cheese, yoghurt and sugar. Fine as a treat and better than store bought normal cheesecakes - but how often are you having it?

Is this an effort to get followers to your page?

Just have a treat in moderation. Unless you’re eating it by the bucketload everyday, I think you’ll be fine. You’ll also be fine if you just have a little bit of normal chocolate as a treat too.

@ambercabs what followers????? I am looking for opinions re recipe and effect on my weight. 🙄🤦🏾‍♀️

Then why don’t you work out it’s nutritional value?

FYI it’s about 300 cal, with normal cottage cheese and 25% of your fat allowance for the day. Assuming it makes two?

Probably lower in calorie and higher in satiety and nutrition (especially calcium) than an actual cheesecake for breakfast.

Is the cottage cheese low fat?
It doesn't look that fattening tbh
Depends on toppings too

I put recipes into chat gpt and ask it to work out calories/macros, that's the easiest way to do it. "Fattening" doesn't really mean anything, it's more about your calorie goals and how it compares to your diet.

@Atarin thanks. The problem is my addictive traits. I do have loads of it every other day or so

@Nn9011 🤔 that’s a good idea to try which I will do now- that did not occur to me thanks. If it had I would have instead been accused of looking for traffic for a random recipe post I found and got addicted to online 🙄

@dementedpixie I don’t even have it with topping at all just the low fat cottage cheese, low fat yogurt, egg, maple syrup. Lemon extract and I make in the oven and devour it 😋😋

@LightCameraBitchSmile 300 calories? That’s not bad thanks

If you have 'loads' of it then it might cause you to exceed your calorie needs and cause weight gain.

I’m happy to be wrong, but it’s not as out there as you might think, sadly very common.

I'm sorry you've had some weird comments. I know AI has its cons but honestly I have the Chat GPT app, it's free and it's such a life saver when it comes to working out recipes. It can work out calories for the whole recipe and then per portion so no need to worry about adding individual ingredients to my fitnesspal etc..

Omg thank you so much! Absolute game changer! Just tried putting in a made up recipe and the level of detail it automatically goes into is insane!

I love it, it helps with other things too! I described my skin and hair colour etc. and it gave me advice on skincare routine and foundation shades and it was right. I also use it for creating budget shopping lists and meal plans. I tell it my allergies, give it a budget and where I'm shopping and it does the rest!

Great ideas and tips! Hello my new obsession! 😅
