I checked this weekend at the local Shop Rite store and voi-la! There it was. i bought vanilla.

A serving size is a half cup. 4 net carbs.

It tasted pretty good and fixed my cravings, which I am now realizing is a Sunday, watching football and sports trigger I must have...

I had pretty much stayed in the induction for the last 8 weeks, but I seem to be trickling off and have started to eat nuts and some berries here and there.

I think I need to be better about counting my carbs as I move out of induction. For some reason induction feels "safe", as I know whats on the list of foods by heart.

I feel blue today for some reason :-(
I think I've been missing my exercise too much too...
*slump... sigh*

Ok - I have a box of this in my freezer. Mine is Chocolate. I'm putting off opening the box. I am still working on portion control. If it's good - I might want the whole thing.

I agree - induction feels safe, you can watch the scales go down and know you're doing good. I just bought the ice cream so if I "had" to cheat - it would be a safe cheat.

I'm hoping to see that Ice Cream here in my stores. Maybe soon. Bryers is the only Ice Cream that my DH likes.

The Bryer's LC icecream with chopped nuts, SF choc syrup and rediwhip! Yum, I'm in heaven! 8-10 carb max heaven!

i threw away half of the strawberry ice cream carton yesterday. it's one of my binge items. i feel much better now because of that. i realize there are things that i cannot handle in moderation. so the safest thing is not to go anywhere near it.

but that aside, i did really enjoy that ice cream.

You probably can't handle it because is has SUGAR in it. High Fructose Corn Syrup and milk are NOT allowed on Atkins in any phase. Check those labels, it's not just the total carb count that matters.

I'm eating it.

I guess I didnt read the label well enough... And I swear we just had a thread here talking about it!

Great... excuse me while I just sink a little farther into my depression today....

ohhh...dont be depressed! it's SOOO GOOOOOD! its awesome that the big companies are making tastely things we can have here and there!

cheer up! You are doing FABULOUS...are starts are about identical! lol I just lowered mine today after a woosh that was long overdue..but I had weight this much 2 weeks ago too so I went up a little then down again... and it wasnt the ice cream!

Thanks Wenzday. I think my body was playing catch up, and I havent weighed myself in about two weeks.

Hopefully I'll catch up to you!

Its so hard sometimes! I am just having a bout of "Yep, I'm still fat" blues, and "this is going to take forever" depression.

I know I am headed in the right direction, and this is a long haul thing!

Aw Lil, I'm impressed that you can wear size 18 pants (read that in Wenzday's journal). I'm 5'0", 216 lbs and wearing 22s. I remember wearing 18 when I weighed around 170....by that weight you will be an 8!

I bought some Breyer's CarbSmart vanilla a couple of days ago and tasted it. I thought it was ok but had a "fake" aftertaste, kind of like Cool Whip. Nothing a little chocolate syrup couldn't cure, but I'm not going down that road yet.

Quest,

Try the chocolate. When it starts melting - it tastes and feels like a Wendy's frostie!!

Yikes!

I bought the strawberry, made myself a nice big bowl and 1/2 way thru it read that it contained High Fructose Corn Syrup - OY VEY!!!!!!

My dreams are shattered...........

No big bowls allowed! The serving size is 1/2 cup for 4 carbs. I go for a cup max so I can still eat some veggies during the day.

Uh oh, Michele! For better or worse I have only seen vanilla locally so far!
