I’m usually a stickler for counting calories and trying to follow a calorie controlled diet but, recently have let things go.
I simply can’t resist Ice-Cream in the warmer weather but I almost fainted yesterday when I saw how many extra calories I was consuming with every bowl of luxury ice-cream I’d been tucking into.
My solution was to find a lower calorie alternative.

Ice-cream contains carbohydrates – slimmingsolutions.co.uk is a stockist of Carb Blockers that work by neutralising the starch (and therefore calories) in carbohydrate rich foods.
so glad i come across this. im a sucker for ice cream but knowing that there are lesser calories in the alternatvies but they still taste good is a god send. im on a healthy eating diet and always treat myself at the end of week with a pudding. so it will be sorbet for me
thanks for the tips here emma. I’ve just returned from Lanzarote and, although I didnt print off your list, I did make sure I compared the calories/fat in my choice of icecream from the local supermarket. I’m sure this help me LOSE 2LBS IN WEIGHT on my weeks holiday.
Hmmmm the Haagen Dazs Sorbets are to die for! the peach is my personal favourite
didnt even know ben and jerrys did sorbet – will give them a try. I tend to like ‘proper’ puddings rather than any type of ice cream though.
