    If you want to reduce calories further, replace custard with low fat yoghurt, or skip altogether.

    Homemade AND super yummy and healthy:

    blend up frozen bananas!!! It blends to a perfect ice cream texture. You can even add cocoa to it to your desired 'chocolateyness".....

    I make frozen yoghurt in my ice cream maker. Just yoghurt and sometimes some fruit or dark chocolate.

    All ice cream is okay, if you fit it in your calories/macros

    but if you're looking for something that is easier to fit in your macros and will give you a decent amount of protein in the process, here's a recipe:

    - 1 scoop vanilla flavour whey isolate powder (or another vanilla flavour protein isolate, doesn't have to be whey)

    - 150g frozen fruit... berries, mango, guava and other fairly sweet fruit works well

    - 100g laban (Arabic dairy product) or plain yoghurt

    Whizz it in a blender, serve in a bowl, eat with a spoon.

    All ice cream is good. I have some pretty much every day in the summer.

    For days when I have the calories to splurge I have Talenti gelato-- it's around 200-250 calories per half cup.

    For days when I don't have the calories or need something with less fat to fit my macros I get Edy's slow churned. They've got one now that's part yogurt and it's awesome. It's 120 calories per half cup.

    Frozen yogurt is also a good choice.

    All foods are OK to eat. Bad foods and good foods don't exist except in our brains. If you're worried about overdoing the claories, just balance the ice cream out with other lower cal food or do more exercise.

    I also eat frozen banana "ice cream" I cut up the banana and freeze it and then put it in the blender with a couple of spoons of peanut butter or almond butter and it's delicious, sometimes I even have it in a cone.

    It's real food and no dodgy chemicals or ingredients I can't pronounce, so I prefer it.

    I love ice cream.it's one of the things I have no self control over so I try to avoid it lol.I hate diet ice cream though, it always has this funny taste to it.Anyway, if it fits in your calories for the day and you can keep yourself from getting a giant spoon and going crazy. Go for it :)

    Arctic Zero. 150 cals/pint.

    150 calories worth of misery.

    also,

    150 calories worth of disappointment.
    150 calories worth of lies.
    150 calories worth of sadness.
    150 calories worth of tears.

    150 calories is 10 minutes on my recumbent bike. OR, eliminating one of my other food choices. No great shakes.

    try mixing a sachet of sugar free jelly, 1 tsp or xanthan gum, a couple of scoops of your choice of whey/caesin powder, and blend it all up with ice and a cup of boiling water, leave in the freezer for an hour to set and you'll have about 1-2 liters of ice cream for about 200 cals and very few carbs
