That reminds me of eating frozen cookie dough rounds from the freezer. I used to be a total Otisspunkmeyer (sp?) in my junkie carb days. I liked them frozen better then baked. Thank you costco.

Damn fiddle you did it again! That sounds good..

Forget the planks can you go get me some cookie dough

I really so miss Ben and Jerry's triple fudge brownie ice cream. So rich and delicious.

If I wasn't such a lady I would cuss you out right now!

Speaking of ice cream, I went grocery shopping today (not fun) and I noticed the ice cream section is overflowing with "healthy" choices

Haha what a marketing scam!

What is healthy ice cream? Sounds like an oxymoron, unless you are talking about the dreyers slow churn 1/2 fat variety. Actually I think weight watcher sundaes are actually something that we could eat on occasion. They are only 120 calories, but are delicious.

OMG I saw so many I started to get hypnotized!

I was just staring at them all! looking like a fool that just walked out of a forest for the first time in 10 years!

Ok I should say my husband usually does the shopping, because he kinda likes it and he tells me I don't look for deals! so it's been awhile.

Ok I saw low fat, no fat, sugar free, frozen yogurts, you name it and they all claim to be better for you than... Whatever! Umm I didn't see one that was fat free and no sugar though?

And the "tofu" ones didn't even have Protein.

Laura, what about the frozen kefir? It has Protein and it's relatively low-cal, plus (according to the packaging) it has all the good stuff like frozen Greek yogurt does. I've not tried it but it was something that someone else had recommended to me in place of sorbet post-op. (Never liked ice cream, but loved sorbet before being sleeved.)

Ummm.. I've not tried that, but I know I'm sitting here eating my fage plain yogurt with a packet of Splenda and frozen blueberries and I feel like I'm eating ice cream and calling it lunch

The kefir doesn't seem to have a lot of Protein so I don't know that I would try it at this point.

I've only seem one brand thought what where you looking at?

Oh I must say the flavors look temping though!

I because I've not figured out a way to make my yogurt taste like chocolate

The only liquid kefir I tried not long after being sleeved was Lifeway. They also make a frozen variety as well. In the organic and vegetarian section of my grocery store (where I find a lot of my Tofurkey and other goodies) they sell other name brands as well. They do have a chocolate flavor! I compared the kefir to the Healthy Choice frozen Greek yogurt and the frozen kefir is SLIGHTLY better but only because of less sugar, fewer carbs and the added benefit (if you believe in it) of the Probiotics, which I didn't see advertised on the Healthy Choice frozen Greek yogurt. Again, I may be mistaken in my comparison while shopping- I'm not an expert. I just noticed everyone talking about ice cream and thought I'd pass on the info that was shared with me.

Kefir is the oldest method of culturing and thus preserving milk. It doesn't need refrigeration so that was good before fridges existed. It is also self-perpetuating. Yogurt culture only lasts a few batches before it stops making yogurt but there are kefir cultures that have been around hundreds of years. You strain out the grains (they look like tiny cauliflower) and just add them to new milk. We used to have dairy goats and this is one of the ways we used the milk. Kefir is a little stronger tasting than yogurt.
