I mean is that crazy? I thought it’s pretty common. In a lot of situations when I want something sweet, it’s not that I am starving but I just need something small to satisfy my sweet tooth. It could be fruit, ice cream, dates, etc.

That’s amazing self control and seriously props to him! That kind of control is not in my ability lol

Ok I do this too. Put tub on scale, scoop out a spoonful (or 3), log it. Sometimes I’m not actually hungry but just crave a little dessert.

Reminds me of Jennifer Aniston when she said she’ll eat just one chip when shes craving potato chips lol 🤣 But, hey, if it works for him then awesome. I can’t imagine leaving a tub of ice cream in the fridge for months though….It would taste freezer burned to me after a week.

I do like 1/4 c of regular ice cream with a bunch of cut strawberries or the like. Makes it go really far, delicious for 100 cal or so.

I used to do this when I was a kid, but now that I’m an adult I can’t otherwise I’ll return to the tub again and again 😂

Does he also have a drawer full of drivers license of missing women in your area? 😂
In all realness I wish I had that kind of self control
verlustes on
Ngl I do this too. I find many ice creams are super sweet and eating one spoon is just enough for me. I’ve always been more of a savoury person, so that’s probably why. The only time I crave sweets is around the time I get my period, so a tub of Haagen dazs will last me months 😅

My husband is known for eating a small handful of gummy candies for dessert and calling it a day. He buys all these varieties and they last weeks. I don’t know how he does it. lol

I wish I had his strength 😭 whenever I crave ice cream I risk eating two pints in one sitting without realizing it 🥲

Lmao I used to do this with peanut butter way too often.

I can do this with everything but ice cream.

I do this with chocolate chips. I keep them in the freezer and just grab a handful when i want something sweet.
SickBurnBro on
Ok, I will do this with a square of chocolate. A single spoon of ice cream is psychopath behavior though.

I do this, but only in the middle of the night.

I dont really eat ice cream when I have it at home. But I’m getting 3 scoops if I eat it.
1 spoon fool just doesn’t compute for me

I eat honey peanut butter like that.. I just got in the jar and take a spoonful.. an enjoy ever bit.. but I dnt recommend it to others because honey peanut butter is pretty caloric if u dnt measure it out.. an I dnt.
MAD_ICE on
I do the same thing and currently still have half a pint to go through in the freezer 😔 I crave ice cream occasionally but never bad enough to go through more than 3-5 spoonfuls before I’m sick of it
hihelloneighboroonie on
Maybe I should buy some ice cream.
I love a lot of sweets, but ice cream isn’t a favorite of mine. Might actually be easier to portion control for me.

I’m so used to volume eating this would kill me
raspberry-squirrel on
Haha. I’m more like, eat all the ice cream except one spoonful and leave the mostly empty container in the freezer. This is why I haven’t had non-halo top in so long that I don’t remember how it tastes.

I have some protein cookie dough that I eat a small spoon or two when I need something sweet. Not sure i could do it with ice cream though!

Sometimes when I’m craving something sweet I’ll eat the whole tub
SmeesTurkeyLeg on
You’ll get to that point too. When I was peak CICO and Intermittent Fasting a single mini fuzzy peach kept my sweet cravings under control for hours.

Wait is this his idea of a spoonful??? That’s a lick at best!

i was pretty proud of myself for only eating four oreos today instead of the whole sleeve, my work brought them in and i couldn’t resist. next goal is only eating one spoon of ice cream instead of the whole tub
Fit_Pool_8622 on
i can do that pretty easily with Ice cream and sweets TBH but god forbid there’s leftover pasta in the fridge… i’ll eat it so fast i can’t breathe between bites.
peach_problems on
I keep biscoff cookies for this reason. I can have just one and be satisfied and curb the sweet tooth, and it’s only 38 calories per cookie. But I wouldn’t be able to do it with most other things lol

If you cut down on sugar, it’s incredibly easy to stop at one bite of ice cream.

I do this also, but spoon of honey. I know it’s sugar, but healthy sugar😝
