ICE CREAM

• Stick to basics when you take the kids out for ice cream : The more the bells and whistles inside and on top of their ice cream - chocolate coating, candy bar pieces, caramel swirls - the higher the calories and fat.
• Go for light ice cream, which has about half the fat of regular. Better yet, get a scoop of frozen yogurt - it delivers even fewer calories, has little if any fat, and is actually a good source of calcium( a half cup scoop equals a serving )
• For desserts at home, buuy light ice cream sandwiches, fudge pops or ice pops all of which are low in calories and fat
