    Goat's milk? How is it?

    Have not yet tried it. Tomorrow's dessert. Eta...Couldn't help myself. Really creamy. Sweet vanilla flavor. I'll give a one bite thumbs up.

    Blue Bunny (mainly Midwest, I think) makes excellent frozen yogurt for around 100 calories per 1/2 cup. Seriously, some of the tastiest frozen yogurt I've ever had. However, if I truly want ice cream, I'm sticking with Ben and Jerry's, Jeni's, Talenti, etc.

    I prefer Artic Zone, honestly. It's easy to find, low in calories, and helps me reach my protein without tasting like protein :)

    I honestly think this is the first time I have ever seen someone say they prefer Arctic Zero. :mindblown

    I've seen it a few times. Do not understand.

    Goats milk ice cream? I am so jealous of some of the stuff you guys find.

    I would just have a serving or two of the real stuff if you could find a way to fit it. Or get a standard, plain vanilla bean and doll it up with toppings. 1/2 cup of Turkey Hill Vanilla has 130 calories alone, but you could add crumpled bacon, 1-2 tablespoons of caramel, fruit, whatever you'd like. The possibilities are endless ;)

    I LOVE LaLoo's! I just finished off a pint of Deep Chocolate last week. I'm trying the So Delicious Cashew Milk Ice cream now. The chocolate truffle and Salted Caramel Blast are delicious! :D

    I have been eyeing the gelatos lately, too.

    Try banana icecream: chop bananas up, freeze, blend in a food processor- with a little water, enjoy! Best tasting and healthiest ice cream ever

    That's not ice cream! I make my own with full fat coconut milk because I find most vegan ice cream disappointing. I have a serving, it fits into my day nicely.

    I have tried a couple and always find them to be horrible except a couple of nut blend based ones. "Artisan" so a bit spendy, but genuto is good - pretty creamy/smooth base - its made from a blend of nuts (cashews, hazelnuts etc IIFC) - the Chai Latte one is very good.

    Edy's/Dreyer's Slow Churned is usually 100-130 calories for a serving (though about 60% of the time now if I want ice cream I have Talenti)

    I quite like the slow churned ones - and I find the cookie dough and PB cup ones to be better than quite a few of the full fat ones.

    Edy's has a lot of decent low calorie ice cream options for days that you don't feel like using a lot of calories on dessert. Usually when I eat low calorie ice cream I usually eat more than one serving though.

    I love their Mint Chocolate Chip & it's only around 110 for 62 grams.

    The French Silk & Cinnamon Bun Fun are pretty good.

    The Cinnamon Bun Fun is really good - the cinnamon running through it has a great texture.

    Just stopping by to see if anyone commented on how god awful Arctic Zero is and warn people against it. They changed it? I might give them another chance.

    Eh, I don't mind the Arctic Zero and I haaaaate every fake sugar I've ever tried. Apparently I can at least tolerate monk fruit. Not enough to actually eat more than a couple spoonfuls though. It's the one thing that lets me understand what people mean when they say something 'tastes like disappointment'. Rest of my family loves it (especially cookies n cream)

    I prefer Edy's slow churned... even before I was counting calories. It's just so much more smooth and creamy than anything else, apart from Talenti (which is just too freaking expensive. Though at least you get a nice storage bin out of it!). Had no idea at first it was supposed to be lower calorie/fat. Thought it was meant to be super creamy and the lower calories and fat were just a result of that process. XD

    Agree totally that frozen mashed banana is... just frozen mashed banana, not ice cream. However, blend 90g Edy's chocolate with a frozen 100g banana makes an almost 8oz, 240 calorie ... not quite milk shake. More like Wendy's Frosty in texture. It's freaking amazing and feels like a meal (as in: it's the last thing I eat almost every night, which always puts me from 'satisfied' to 'stuffed')

    Great Suggestions crew..THANK YOU...yay..
    my lastest fav is EZ homemade fruit smoothies...since Im only a month in on HEALTHY weightloss..trying to just stick to non processed foods..(just for month or so:)

    EZ best tasting smoothies..fruit of your choice..ie strawberries, banana, pear, green apple..etc..then ad handful of FROZEN fruit..my fav frozen peaches..whirrr and frozen smoothie!to die for seriously..
    if you need little liquid add wee bit almond milk or bit o yogurt(iccckk)..
    weekly splurge with small scoop of YUMMY fat free ice cream y'all recommended!
    adding frozen fruit makes more like a frozen thick treat then a "juice'..

    This is actually pretty good. 140 cals a serving. I did not even realize it was froyo at first. Not quite as creamy as most ice cream/gelato but very nice.

    Ignore the feet plz...can't be a.rsed to crop them out lol.

    Not really a frozen yogurt fan but I'd try that.

    I am not either so it was a pleasant surprise! I actually only realize it was froyo quite a while after I had it IIRC.

    I'd try that froyo too. But usually if I get froyo I want it to be less calories than a serving of ice cream.

    I LOVE Ben & Jerry's Half Baked fro yo. Yes, it's fro yo, but the liberal amounts of brownie and cookie dough chunks in there are delicious. It's 180 calories for 98 grams, so not necessarily low cal, but lower than most of their ice creams. I don't always have 320 calories for Peanut Buttah Cookie Core.

    Live a little. Eat your favorite ice cream, just don't overdo it.

    I eat one serving of my favorite Blue Bell or B&J flavor, plus some raspberries (or other fruits) and chopped walnuts. Very filling and tasty dessert for little more than 200 calories, depending on the ice cream flavor.

    You should be able to enjoy the foods you love, otherwise what's the use of dieting?

    I know all of those words individually, but in that order? They don't make sense to me.

    I'd be all over that froyo from the flavor combo alone.

    I'm daydreaming (read: daydrooling) about all of these ice cream flavors. I'm thinking about buying this later on today. I had it about a month ago for the first time and it was awesome.

    I heard the Trader Joe's version of the flavor is pretty good as well.

    My local Kroger had some of the newer Talenti flavors in stock so I went and bought an oatmeal cookie tub. I know it doesn't have the best reviews, but dang it I'm ready to accept the consequences.

    I took my kids to get ice cream today and I had...something...it was soft serve, diary-free, sugar-free, lactose-free, gluten-free....air?!? I don't know. But today has been in the 90s and I really don't like ice cream (hides) So this was actually refreshing. It was good, even though I am not big on sweets. But honestly, I have no idea what I was eating. :/
