100 calorie single serving chocolate brownies low fat, vegan, and delicious

chocolate craving hit me hard today! so i wanted to bake a batch of brownies, but i knew i would eat them all. so i searched and searched all over the internet for a low calorie brownies and it came down to this! tried it just today, worth making.

1tbsp flour

1tbsp sugar

1tbsp Cocoa, Dry Powder, Unsweetened

2tbsp apple sauce (or smashed banana, or canned pumpkin puree)

1pinch of salt and baking powder

mix and put into a microwave or oven safe bowl (a small one like custard cup or a paper cupcake liner works too) microwave for 30 seconds-minute or 3-10 minutes in the oven! since there is no eggs the center can still be under cooked if you prefer a lava cake! since this is only 96 calories, add a drizzle of peanut butter, a small scoop of low cal ice cream, cool whip or non dairy whip, get creative!

WARNING: May be triggering. But I still think it’s important to see.

See this? It’s a 19-year-old girl, she had both anorexia and bulimia nervosa for five years. She’s not alive in this picture, she died approximately 12 hours before this picture was taken. This was how she died, bent over the toilet. The cause of death was that she binged. She binged on so much food that her stomach couldn’t handle everything she was shoving down her throat, so her stomach ripped all the way from where her ribs met all the way to her pubic bone. You must think this is cool? You wish you had an eating disorder? Ha. You see a little green tint on her stomach, want to know what that is? It’s her organs decaying. Glamorous enough for you? This was how her family found her. Imagine your own mom, dad, brother or sister finding you like this: dead. Or imagine yourself in their position. Would you want to find a family member or a friend this way? I don’t think you want to. Is this really what you want? Think twice. I don’t think you want this. Die bent over the toilet? No. Eating disorders are not something you want nor something to joke about! Eating disorders are serious. They’re dangerous. And they can kill you. This is what they do. I want to spread awareness about eating disorders. Too many people strive to be thin and wish they could have the “self control anorexics do”. No. That’s not how it works. They are not something you want, they don’t make you beautiful, they’re not glamorous. But if you still want one after you’ve read and seen this message, then there’s nothing else to say. I can’t stop you; only you can save yourself.

I feel like I need to show you guys this.  That picture on the left is of me in 2010 on my birthday.  I weighed about 280 right there. Look at me, I’m huge.  I see old photos of myself and I can hardly believe it’s me.  Honestly, I don’t even remember what it felt like to be so big, inactive, and out of shape.  I just know that I wasn’t happy, I was always self conscious, and always felt judged. 

That photo on the right was taken of me today (23 May 2012).  I may not be thin or have the ideal body, but you know what?  I’m in the best damn shape I’ve ever been in, and I can only get better from here. 

Don’t any of you dare give the fuck up.

You’ll thank yourself in a year, five years, ten years from now, when you seen how far you’ve come.
