Just a tub of ice cream.. 🍨

I am a big ice cream lover, and even more so now we’re moving towards spring and summer!

If you’re watching a movie or you’ve had a tough day or just fancy some dessert you may be tempted to grab a tub of ice cream

and a spoon and tuck in! And once you start a tub it’s gone before you know it isn’t it? A portion is supposedly two scoops but that can be quite hard to stick to! However if you’re trying to lose or maintain weight it might not be possible to accommodate an entire tub in your calories.

In this example the tub of Häagen-Dazs comes in at around 1265 cals. One option would be to swap to a low calorie alternative (such as Oppo, Halo top, Aldi own brand, etc ) and you’d probably spend around 400 cals max on an entire tub. But sometimes you don’t actually want the lower calorie version or you may prefer the taste of the original Häagen-Dazs. In which case then maybe the better option is to go for the mini tubs instead. One of these is only 262 cals. So technically you could even have 2 or 3 and still be saving some calories!

So if you do want to enjoy some Ice cream but save some cals try going for the mini tubs instead of the full size ones.
