weight loss fads are really becoming stranger and stranger by the day. from lemonades, to grass-fed butter, and now brownies? yep. for the sweet tooths out there fearing they have to cut off on sugar to get to their desired bodies, fear not and take refuge in Hollywood Diet Brownie's claim of a delicious way to lose weight!
let's see... according to the packaging:
Hollywood Diet -- The first delicious way to loose weight! (is it?). Each Hollywood Diet brownie is individually wrapped for eating on-the-go. Take a tasty meal with you to the office, on the plane, on the road, to the gym, or anywhere else you go.
Directions for use: Enjoy a combination of up to four brownies or cookies per day in place of breakfast and lunch. Alternatively, enjoy as a satisfying snack.
Suggested schedule: One brownie for breakfast, midmorning snack, lunch, and midafternoon snack. Eat a sensible dinner (see suggested recipes on our website). Exercise regularly -- it's good for your heart and good for your figure.All right, off to the experience!
Taste Test
it's kindof dry, with a tangy fruitcake taste to it albeit without alcohol. but it does taste like your regular brownie. it's yummy!
Serving Size
is normal for a brownie but for a breakfast or lunch meal? NOPE. well i had my doubts, how could this small treat serve as an entire meal? turns out it curbs your appetite. i ate it slowly, drinking water in between some 2 or 3 small bites.
The Feels
did i feel hungry after eating it? did it really curb my appetite for hours? to be honest, not really. i ate it for breakfast at around 10am in the morning, and still got hungry during lunch at around 12nn. it's not the type of hunger that a brownie could satiate though, so i went on to eat a real lunch (i.e. my baon). i ate another brownie during snacktime around 4pm, and come dinner time (7-ish), i was hungry again so i ate what i would.
my feeling is that if i had followed the directions specifically, brownies only for breakfast, lunch, and snacks, i would've felt a considerable difference in my appetite. but i didn't, because seriously i don't feel comfortable eating brownies for lunch.
Would I recommend it?
i would recommend this if what's stalling your weight loss journey is your sugar intake. this could make a really good substitute for all the sweets you want to devour. it's sweet enough and tastes good!
