Yes he is..but he was there anyway getting I/C for his mother who is quite sick and not eating. But she thought she could eat some Brewsters coconut ice cream.

I've tried to cut back my sugar intake to next to nil many times... heh. Not happening...

I have learned to deal with temptation and allow myself a treat every now and again. In the end though I am much healthier, happier and if that means no ice cream then that is the trade off. I can still fantasize about it though.

Did you lose a lot of weight? I am addicted to Pepsi and get cranky and sick feeling till' I have the first (and usually only) one of the day. That is my heroin I guess. I cannot imagine giving up sugar and carbs (carbs is bread right?) So what do you eat now?
Yes I did lose weight. Sorry to hijack your ice cream thread though. I allow myself one diet soda per day. Sometimes I have a cup of coffee or hot tea with splenda. Other than that I drink crystal light and water. As far as food goes if it is white it ain't right. I have had two pieces of bread and maybe ten low carb tortillas in the last 19 months. I eat lots of fresh veggies and lean meats. Some times I add in a handful of nuts or some fruit. I splurge every now and again but I have learned my limits. Sometimes I get tempted to overstep the boundaries but I have been pretty good at realing myself back in. The great side is that it is nice to buy new smaller clothes.
So how was that ice cream?
They do have a sugar free ice cream there.... it isn't too bad. Yesterday, the choice of flavors were strawberry and fudge ripple. Of course it is not the real deal, but if you aren't taking in a lot of sugar now, it may just satisfy that "craving".
Thanks for the idea but I am like thirty minutes from there. If I do make that trip I can guarantee that I will be getting the real deal and not the just satisfy my craving stuff. I have one of their cards in my wallet though so I may treat myself to a scoop in a month or so.

The ice cream was very good, but I don't really think it was any better than Bryers. I'll have to eat some more before I can make a complete decision. lol
I don't like diet soda, it truly upsets my stomach. So that's not an option. Do you eat whole grain breads? I'm all for losing weight, and feeling better, but if it takes away the pleasure of eating is it really worth it? I guess if it is a matter of life/death it is totally worth it. Oh yeah...in the AM I have two cups of coffee w/Splenda and a big old spoon of Ameretto flavoring junk.

There is a limited edition Turkey Hill ginger snap ice cream out right now that is to die for! It's at Giant, FYI!

If I could get Blue Bell icecream down here (at the store), I'd be happy as a clam....I guess I'm not feeling the Bruster's love as much because I am a Blue Bell girl, and in my opinion nothing can compare ------ it's the best stuff!
Blue Bell is in Walmart freezer section.
