Milkshakes

[Juicydaddy]

Not so long ago, DP showed me this lovely local dessert shop. I got in the habit of spending 6 pound a night on XL Oreo milkshakes, so I decided to save some money and bought the ingredients myself and didn't realize how easy it was to throw ice cream, milk, Oreos and chocolate syrup into the blender. Tasted the same if now better than the dessert shop, I couldn't believe I could make something so delicious right there in my kitchen!

Iv been making them every single night for a month now but have noticed I am going through 4 tubs of ice cream and 7 packets of Oreos a week. I haven't gained any weight from this though but DP is worried about me, saying it's unhealthy and weird that I am now "addicted" to Oreo milkshakes.

We have a great relationship filled with love and laughter everyday but when my craving kicks in at night and the blender comes out, DP doesn't speak a word to me and usually leaves me for the rest of the night.

This morning DP sat me down for a talk and told me she was going to stay at her mother's for a few nights to think things through and is taking the kids with her, I was so confused and sad. I asked what all this was about and she screamed in my face "YOU NEED HELP" and started crying.

I can't believe what my life has become all because of Oreo milkshakes. I'm starting to think maybe I do need help. How would you feel if your DP started drinking milkshakes every night? Would it be a huge issue ?

It's just sponge cake with icing and sprinkles on. Used to get it in primary school it's lovely, I would make and eat one nearly every night until that became a problem 😂

Fgs You're nearly 38, Darren.

Oh good, the ED topic is being trolled

I think it's the - every night - obsessive part thats quite a lot? Do you not get tired of it all? Sounds expensive also.

You need to sit down with her and see what her problem is with it-the eating itself/obsession/not spending time in the evenings but instead creating desserts etc etc

😁

How's everything going OP? Have you had a milkshake today? 🙂

Things are okay today but last night was rough. I couldn't get to sleep, was tossing and turning all night sweating, not sure if it was the heat or some minor withdrawals from the shakes but I'm over the hump now. Maybe in the future I could have them on weekends just as a treat but for now I have to get my DP back. Thanks for asking btw, means alot. It's good to have people to listen on here and look out for you 🙏

The shakes from no shake.

You can do it. Maybe try a carrot, green apple and ginger smoothie as a low sugar alternative but whatever you do, don't bang on about it!

Glad to hear you're over the hump 👍🏻

Never mind. I relapsed and went back to the dessert shop, I'm so ashamed of myself. Why can't I stop 😕

What she doesn't know won't hurt her.

🤣🤣🤣 Sorry to hear about your relapse. Tomorrow's a new day.

Are you NT, OP? The obsessiveness is quite odd.

^^ I ate nothing but udon noodles for 6months. Recently moved onto panko crust calamari. Are you on the spectrum?

I don't like Oreos but a chocolate and banana milkshake is divine

4 tubs of ice cream into 7 milkshakes. How big are those milkshakes?

Normally fills a pint glass and I drink the rest from the blender

I was gonna ask this! I make these all the time and even filling my nutribullets biggest cup I don't use anywhere near this much.

My fella's favourite takeaway is berry's grill house, their milkshakes are full of ice cream.
