TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
Doesn’t Tracy look AMAZING??? I’m SO proud of her! I had to share her story!
“On the left we have what appeared to be a very confidant 207 lb Tracy. That was all a lie!!!
I was depressed, unhappy, sick, and felt very ugly. I’ve struggled with my weight loss since I can remember. I remember being made fun of when I was 8 by the lake with my mom and sister. I remember being called thunder thighs at 14 right before I dove into a pool. I felt so big that sometimes when I walked I heard it like an elephant stomping. I was very insecure. I just hid it very well. I became somewhat of an expert putting on my masks as I was literally torturing myself in my mind. Not being very kind to myself at all. Those were dark times. There were many nights I would cry myself to sleep.
5 months ago I changed that with Emmerich Keto. Sure I had family and acquaintances tell me that the way I was eating would hurt me in the long run or it wasn’t sustainable, or depriving my body will only lead me back to massive weight gain. I chose to ignore those voices and kept going. I’ve tried many different styles of eating. And they all left me with cravings.
However, eating the Emmerich way has kept me very satisfied and I have no cravings!!!
I make my own foods to take with me when traveling. The way I see it I spent so much time getting away from what I never wanted to be so I’ll be damn if I use vacationing as an excuse to eat in a way that makes me feel bad. I do exercise daily because again if I have time to sit and watch TV for almost an hour a day I’d rather use that time to take care of me.
Here I am on the right weighing 148.2 lb. I’m actually very confidant, happy and I no longer hear the elephant stomping when I walk. I have no more knee pains, back aches, or migraines. I can climb up stairs without getting overly exhausted or stopping to catch my breath.
I can walk in a room and actually feel pretty on the inside as well as the outer appearance.
Be kind to yourself even when you’re not feeling your best and know you can always change that.” Tracy

Can unsweetened almond milk be used in this recipe? Thanks!
Yes 🙂
Why use baking soda?
It helps keep the ice cream soft 🙂
Do you have a Chocolate or Strawberry version? Can cocoa powder be added to make chocolate? Thank you for ALL you do. Love Kai. He is Such a Cutie. I love to watch you two cook!!
Yes, just use chocolate or strawberry flavored Equip. Or, you could add cocoa powder like you suggested 🙂
Does this have to be made in an ice cream maker or can it just be blended really well with a blender and frozen?
For the best consistency I recommend churning 🙂
Hi Maria! Can’t wait to try this! The directions mention using powdered Allulose but the link is for the crystalline Monk Fruit/Allulose blend. Which one should we use…the crystalline monk fruit/allulose blend (that is linked) or the powdered monk fruit/allulose blend? Thanks so much!! 🙂
Either works fine 🙂
Hi Maria, I don’t digest beef well so I was wondering if I could use a plant-based protein powder for this recipe instead? Thank you for sharing all of your hard work with us, I appreciate every recipe and health tip you provide!
Sorry, I haven’t tried.
hello wondering if you have used the chocolate collegen powder for this recipe? Further Foods product.
Thanks very much!

Not necessarily, but it gives the ice cream a nice texture 🙂
We made this ice cream for our Fourth of July celebration . It was quick and easy. My keto family ate it right up.
I chose to make vanilla. The flavor was an intense equip vanilla taste. I thought it was a bit sweet. I used an allulose/ monkfruit mix. The one it takes you to in the link. I did not use the stevia. Another time I will make chocolate or peanutbutter. Iced coffee with instant coffee added might be a good combo.
We made this in a conventional ice cream maker. It hardened rather quickly. It was definitely not soft serve. It was with much effort that my hubby scraped us off pieces. I will remove it from the cylinder before putting in the freezer to set up. I’m not sure if that is the answer to my problem .
I wonder if I used a counter top like the one in the video if the texture might be better.
Any thoughts on how to resolve the texture issue?
I’m not really sure what happened. It is nice and soft for me when I use my Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker 🙂 https://mariamindbodyhealth.com/ice-cream-maker/
