    Sugar free or no sugar added ice cream or frozen yogurt can be pretty low in calories. We normally have a small cup every night and just budget it in. If you keep your portions in line it wont hurt you.


    One tip we use: Use a small coffee cup or similar size dish instead of a bowl. 1/2 a cup of ice cream sitting in a cereal bowl looks anemic, but 1/2 a cup in a coffe cup looks pretty good!


    So true , I eat a 1/2 cup of my favorite ice cream often. I love ice cream and it is unrealistic of me trying to give it up. I fit it into my daily allowance of calories. Lost 45 lbs of eating things I love. I make better choices, exercise and earn it.

    I love the sugar free fudgecicles! One pop is only 40 calories, so I can eat 2 and not feel bad! I still work it into my calorie allowance, but it is much easier to allow for 90cal then 300cal! They taste great and have mostly "cured" my craving for ice cream! On occasion I will splurge and have an individual serving of B&J ice cream, but I buy the individual serving packages as I will eat a whole pint, because no one really believes that a pint of B&J has 4 servings! LOL!
