And I don't think I'm sorry about it.

    There's never any reason to be sorry about ice cream, unless it tastes terrible.

    I still have it a number of times a week. I just weigh out my serving to make sure I'm still within my calories.

    My favorite is vanilla, it goes with everything. I'm making banana upside down cake at this moment and will be getting a scoop of vanilla on the top.

    Ice cream is SOMETHING, I can't use portion control. It's my weakness so I only have it when I go out to eat.

    My aunt makes a killer pineapple upside down cake, but I've never tried banana!! I bet it is fantastic, especially with some vanilla ice cream on top! :love:

    If you can't weigh, eat, and stop with 4 oz of ice cream for 180 perfectly snack-sized calories, try any of the lower-calorie offerings, from 40 calorie fudge pops, 100 calorie frozen yogurt, 0 calorie ice. If you can't stop... if the problem is that you just can't stop until the bucket is empty, quit buying the bucket.

    I used my old cast iron fry pan because it is larger than a cake pan. Some of the replies to her recipe stated that a cake pan was not big enough and their batter spilt over the side when baking. They would be right, it was a lot of batter. It turned out great and yummy.

    I used to have the same problem. The healthy, lower fat ice cream just isn't the same so I treat myself but measure it out. If I don't do that then i end up eating the entire container!

    Im guilty of eating the whole 500ml tube then spreading the calories over 5 days at 100ml a day, means i can have my binge on ice cream and still be in my calories.

    although is not something I do often as only buy one tub now and then so i cant just keep eating it.

    ya should have seen my face when my shopping was delivered the other week and they had sent ben & jerrys salted caramel instead of chocolate fudge brownie lol

    Low sugar ice cream is great. High in protein and calcium. As long as you are not eating a half gallon of it, go ahead. I wholeheartedly agree, ice cream is one of the greatest things in life.

    I eat between 1/2 cup and 3/4 cup of non-dairy ice cream (I'm dairy intolerant) every single night almost without fail. I adore it and I'm definitely not sorry about it.

    The only thing that makes me sorry about ice cream is when, in a fit of prudence, I order one scoop in a small waffle cone instead of two scoops in a large, and boom, it's gone. :'( We have a fabulous little local shop 4 blocks from us with thick, rich, creamy homemade ice cream--blueberry cheesecake is my obsession, but any are good.

    I love ice cream as well. the slow churn kind is really good and has a little less calories, I'm eating the mud pie one right now. I REALLY love cold stone though, with cookie dough and brownies and all that yummy stuff. Just gotta live too!!!!

    Have you tried Halo Top? 35 cal per 1/2 cup plus protein and the couple flavors I've tried are creamy - seriously!
