I thinking finding healthy desserts that taste good to be the most challenging.

I'd love to win this cookbook. It would help me maintain my weight after losing 35 lbs in the last 2 yrs.

What's challenging for me about eating healthy desserts during the holiday season is that all the "bad" desserts look and taste so much better sometimes! :D But, I'm a baker, and I've been working on different recipes to try to make healthy desserts look and taste awesome, if not better, than the "full-fat" versions. :]

I would say the hardest thing would have to be not trying all of the desserts, portion control!

packratmomto4 12-06-2010 @ 3:00PM

My hardest thing is to stop once I start. PORTION CONTROL!!!!

Maureen 12-06-2010 @ 3:01PM

the hardest thing I find is trying to find desserts that are yummy but won't throw my calorie count too far off

Brenda 12-06-2010 @ 10:02PM

There are too many tasty desserts for the Holidays that just need tasting and I just can't help it!!!

Kandi Carvalho 12-06-2010 @ 3:20PM

What a fantastic idea! We all need a little help in the dessert category, so we don't feel as if we deny ourselves the pleasure of a little dessert! Cannot wait to see this cookbook, in all it's glory!

Suzanne 12-06-2010 @ 3:23PM

The hardest thing for me is how I tend to eat too much because I'm not going to have that particular dessert again for a while.

Roxanne 12-06-2010 @ 3:27PM

The hardest part is trying just one! They always look so good.

anitambowers 12-06-2010 @ 3:58PM

It's hard for me when people bring in dessert from little gourmet bakeries, because I know I will probably never get a chance to try anything like that again :) If it's jsut walmart cake, I will skip it haha.

Kerry 12-06-2010 @ 3:41PM

portion control is the hardest part for me. And finding healthy substitutes. :)

Debbie 12-06-2010 @ 3:46PM

For me personally, it's the situation that I find myself in every Christmas. We are always invited over to our neighbor's house for Christmas dinner. Her family & extended family is quite large (sometimes as many as 18-25 people) and it is not uncommon to have 10 or 12 different dessert options. It seems that if I don't try even just a "smidgen" someone gets their feelings hurt. So take a smidgen X 12 and that's alot of calories! (As a guest, I don't want to make anyone angry or hurt, especially at Christmas!) So... there is my quagmire!

Jensue 12-06-2010 @ 4:26PM

The hardest part is deciding which dessert to choose OR only taking a small portion of each to try.

diana 12-06-2010 @ 7:30PM

Throughout the year I continually pursue healthier recipes for favorite traditional dishes substituting where I can resulting in lower fat and sugar. The most challenging for me is to stick with that healthier version when I make it for guests on a holiday or big event. I know how good the original dessert is and it is hard to convince myself that this revised version will be as well received.

HELEN 12-06-2010 @ 4:01PM

The hardest thing about dessert during the holiday season is saying no! I have a HUGE sweet tooth and it is so tough for me to resist dessert.

Sue Aflague 12-06-2010 @ 4:14PM

Oh, I want one of these cookbooks!

Taci 12-06-2010 @ 4:12PM

portion control even with healthier recipes - after I adjust the recipe no one else will eat it and I don't want to waste it so ... :P
am working hard on getting rest of the family on board with healthful desserts.

Tamara 12-06-2010 @ 5:04PM

I think the hardest thing about holiday desserts is just finding one or two that you want to indulge in; there are too many great-tasting options! And as others have said, portion control..
