Good morning All,today I am off to a good start. So far I have given the dog a bath, started a load of laundry, checked on my medicine refill, and after this I need to give my other dog a cut and a bath. Not really looking forward to that one, he is a border collie mix and weighs about 125 pounds. I would love to have him shaved but of course we can't afford it, so I am going to do the best I can.
As much as I would like to go to the gym today, I just have way to much to do this morning, and I am not even gonna pretend that I might go this afternoon, because hubby gets home around 3:30pm and he spends a couple of hours at the gym, and I do not want to have to start cooking dinner that late.
I have learned something about myself this week, and I have to share it with you. As you know I have been addicted to ice cream lately, and I have started to eat the Blue Bunny Classic Star bar, yes I eat two of them but I am still learning how to cut back. My hubby brought home some Edy's Neopolitan ice cream, and for the past two night I have been eating that instead of the Blue Bunny. Okay, so I am rambling. The first night I DID put some in a small bowl (yay me)last night I put some in a slightly larger bowl, and it got the better of me, because I went back for seconds. VERY BAD I know,anyway, if I eat the star bar's I am good with those. If I eat any other ice cream I over indulge.
So, My lesson to myself when it comes to ice cream is, stick with the star bars and leave the rest alone. I am satisfied with those and I don't go back for thirds.
I have been to the gym everyday this week, except for today, but I am still moving and doing exercise, because it takes a lot to give a dog a bath, especially large dogs. Well, thanks for reading, and I hope that you all have a wonderful and blessed day !!!! :)

I am the SAME way with ice cream...if I put it in a bowl I can never stick to the serving amount (1/2 cup seriously???) BUT I started buying the Skinny Cow ice cream treats and sometimes the Weight Watchers fudge bars and those have been kicking my cravings AND they're individually wrapped so my mind tells me I'm done when it's gone....something else I'm going to try are Greek yogurt fudgsicles (or whatever fruit flavor you'd like)...just mix up 1 cup yogurt with a little honey and your flavor of choice, stick em in the freezer, and bam! ice cream treat! Have a wonderful Wednesday!!!

Lately when I've been eating ice cream, I've been serving it in a measuring cup. I'm sure it looks goofy, but portion control is key. Ice cream bars sound like an easier way to accomplish that.

I used to be an ice cream addict as well. I haven't had it in about 3 years now. I don't miss it at all. Now, I might have a cup of organic frozen blueberries or strawberries to nibble in the evening, but that's about as indulgent as my eating gets these days, and I couldn't be happier (or healthier)! Oh, and I also sometimes make frozen "ice cream" in my food processor using only organic frozen bananas, pineapple, strawberries, etc. It's delicious!

Sweets, great idea! I heard you could make "ice cream" using bananas, haven't tried it yet though!

Do it! You'll love it! Just watch your portion sizes on it because it's REALLY easy to eat 6 bananas worth of it in one sitting! (Not that I would know anything about that kind of behavior.) *looking innocent*

Giving dogs baths, especially large, long-haired dogs is definately a work-out! I have a golden retreiver. I am also an icecream lover! Almost any kind. Great job noticing what helps you keep things under control. You got some awesome suggestions above. I think I'm going to try that banana icecream and greek yogurt fudgesicles! Great job with your dedication to go to the gym. Missing one day in a week is pretty darn good!

Whew...busy BUSY day! Dog washing should have it's own exercise listing. That's WORK! Congratulations on the self discoveries. Those are so major. I really believe it's hard to change where you're going until you understand where you've been and how you got there. Good for you for registering the lesson learned!

You are doing good working on cutting down :) You can do it! I like to get the Blue Bunny bars or cones because it's easier to limit myself to one, but when I do eat the Blue Bunny tub ice cream I try to use a tiny bowl and only take one scoop.

Ice cream is tough for me if it gets kept in the house, eventually I cave in to it. Sherrie giving large dogs a bath is a 2 way street...you get a bath also doing it. :) At least that's how it worked with the lab/shepherd mix I used to have.

I also try to make my own and I use a single serving ice cream maker I bought for my daughter a while ago ... it allows me a bit more control. It's very easy to over-indulge some of the gourmet ice creams and frozen treats available. I find it difficult to resist the gelatos at a wonderful little place in Niagara on the Lake (I am so glad it's 2 hours away from where I live because I only get there about once a year).
