40 Day Max Fat Burn BONUS
Overview
Welcome to my BONUS Desserts Recipes!
I hope you enjoy this selection of mouth-watering treats! Before you go digging into the
Mango Strawberry Sundae or the Choc-Cherry & Ricotta Trifles, you need to know WHEN
to eat these meals!
These desserts should only be used as a replacement for a Main Meal (ie: lunch or
dinner). You can use them any time throughout the 40 days, and are designed to give you
another option when the sweet cravings hit.
It happens to all of us at some time or another, so don’t despair if you’d rather dig into
the Banana Bread rather than the Fish Pie. It’s totally ok with me. Just stick to the portion
sizes laid out in the recipes and you won’t do any damage at all. 3
