    I guess people didn't read the expensive BUDGET part because reading is hard.

    Bananas are 19 cents a piece at Trader Joe's which works out less per lb than most places.

    thats what i was thinking, bananas are great i haven't brought any in a while as i like them pretty much green haha!

    Stop bringing money to work. No money, no ice cream (if you need money for transt/parking bring exactly that amount). I used to work right beside a Tim Hortons. I rarely brought money or my bank card with me, as it was too easy to justify a pre-work snack.

    That's also a great idea thank you

    Buy yogurt (regular or greek) and freeze them. It tastes pretty good and satisfies cravings. You'll have to be at home though..

    100 calories for some ICE CREAM??? girllll, give me the address of this establishment, please. lol. That's not a lot of calories at all. I suppose you can pretend it's crap on a stick or perhaps, just avoid it like a plaque at all costs. It doesn't seem too bad for you though. ..

    Eat a piece of fruit instead. I fully support eating it if it fits into your calories, but you sound like me with candy bars. Every day after lunch I HAD to have one. It's better to be able to break the cycle so you aren't dependent on an ice cream bar.

    Make your own!! There are so many recipes on Pinterest for healthier ice creams without needing a ice cream maker!! One of my favorites is

    4 bananas
    splash of soy milk
    spoonfull of peanut butter
    * you can add a little coco power and sweetner if you want
    Blend it up and put it in the freezer for a few hours and enjoy!!
