    Only if you really really want it. Otherwise, I think it's kind of counter-productive to eat something fattening just to meet the daily calorie goal. A couple of days isn't a big deal.

    Define "something fattening"

    you get fat by having an excess of calories. Icecream is not fattening if you are eating it whilst still at a deficit.

    My vote goes for - eat the ice cream if it fits your calories/macros.

    stop with the fermented carbs!!!

    Are you for real with this post hun??? Sorry to question your intelligence but it can not be that hard to reach your 1200 cals without ice cream.

    I was eating 1200 cals for a year and never had to resort to haagen daz :noway:

    Eat the damn ice-cream.

    Ditto

    Go for it. Stopping yourself eating a little of something you crave makes you binge.

    How did you fall short 1200 calories 2 days in a row? What is your calorie goal for the day? How much are you logging as exercise calories burned?

    Because of course this is totally relevant to whether you should eat some ice cream or not...*cough* :indifferent:

    Well? How the hell do you wind up short 1200 calories short 2 days in a row? That is a HUGE amount...the math and logic doesn't seem to add up. I don't want to say sure go ahead and eat an entire container of haagen daz without having more info.

    Plus...the post seems a bit trollish. And if so it's working because here I am explaining my post to you.

    But what the heck OP go ahead and eat that ice cream if it fits into your daily calorie allotment!

    In reply to below: Yes I am being serious and i am highly intelligent-, I have a degree, professional qualifications and degree in common sense. For the last three days i been busy and i only manage to eat 1046- 1120 in calories. MFP had warned me to eat 1200 minmum. I had my dinner and was still under. my concern also was i was under 1200 and I also had exercise which meant had 414 calories also. I decided i needed to eat at lest 1200 but i had run out of fruit but had 50ml haagen daz left in freezer which was 123 calories. You be happy to hear i walk down the street to buy a bunch of grapes. Now I am at 1200.

    ^^^My head hurts and my math skills are definitely off today. It sounded from your original post that you were short 1200 calories for the day. From this post it sounds like you're only short a few hundred? Eat the ice cream and call it a day:flowerforyou:

    Re-read. You did not comprehend the post as it was written. She was short OF 1200 calories for 2 days...not short BY 1200 calories.

    OK so you are highly intelligent, sorry for questioning you!!!

    But there are lots of people on MFP that have serious issues and eating ice cream to reach 1200 cals is not one......you read like a sensible person, maybe help some new people that come on MFP??

    I would also check a lot of the posts from people on 1200 cals a day to get some ideas of quick recipes.

    Good luck x

    Isn't tequila a fermented carb? Does ice-cream come in that flavor?
