This has always been my weakness and still is! Its preventing me from losing like I should! Just wondering if anyone out there is in the same boat and would like to make a promise not to have ice cream of any sort until next Monday! Just to see what happens to our weight? :biggrin:

I like icecream too and so I say...don't keep it in the house and buy smaller sizes, like a pint instead of a gallon and make sure you only have one serving size at a time.

And lets take it past Monday and say no icecream until we lose 5 pounds??:biggrin:

Hi,

I love icecream too and would do better to avoid it. I don't buy it and keep it in the house, but I do drive through McDonald's too often for one of their 150c cones. I'll join you until Monday!

i'm in!!!

FYI....I have seen that the stores are selling single serving containers now- no risk of eating extra! Also a coworker (who is banded) told me this neat trick- get the whipped yogurt and freeze it- its thicker like frozen yogurt.

Okay my friends, its on. And Mo, Ill take your offer on the 5 pounds. Unfortunately, I use my kids and husband as the excuse for buying ice cream, but in reality, they are super thin and Im the one eating almost all of it. At this point, I have ic in the house, so its going to take super will and extra scoops for the others in the house to try to finish it up. Please post next monday and let me know how its going. Thanks for the icecream help. Sabrina:grouphug:

All I want is a BLT! I have tomatoes from my garden that are screaming for bacon and italian bread. Guess I will have some broth.

Has anyone tried to make "ice cream" with yogurt. I got inspired after eating pink berry and yoforia.

You get plain yogurt/greek yogurt and put pineapple juice in it. Once it get to the right consitancy and after you freeze it, you can top it with fruit. You don't have to add any sugar but you can try it with coconut milk, mango nectur and other syruplike juices.

you will be in :biggrin::wub::thumbup::wub:

I have tried the Skinny Cow ice cream. Less calories and it tastes good!

AMEN............its always just sitting there in my freezer waiting for my glance that turns into a touch.My only battle tool is that I make sure that it is ALWAYS no sugar added ice cream with a dab of no sugar added cool whip. Of course its limited to a 1/2 cup

Okay this is not going to be like eating ice cream I'll admit that upfront! I make my protein shakes with the following items: fat free milk frozen into ice cubes, sometimes sugar free flavored water cubes as well, chocolate protein powder, sugar/fat free instant pudding powder. liquid fat free milk, splendra, occationally PB2 (peanut powder with most of the oil removed). I mix my choices in a blender. Voila! Chocolate Frappe (Thick milk shake). Has about 200-220 calories and 30-35 grams protein.
