That's kind of my problem. I wish I could stop myself from buying ice cream.

I shot up to 50 pounds above my healthy weight during 2020, and a big part of that I can attribute to the availability of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food at a nearby gas station

For me, the brand is Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. They're pricey, but I ended up buying a couple of pints and eating them over the weekend. It completely undoes all my progress throughout the week too.

Aw, shoot. Maybe I need to cut out ice cream.

I've had a pint of Phish Food in my freezer for months now. I keep wanting to eat it, but that stuff is so outrageously high in calories, and I know I'll eat the whole pint the moment I open it!

That is the problem. If only there was a way to put less in a bowl, but I’ve never figured out how to do that

Oh, look at Mr. Portion Control over here. πŸ™„

Its only 1100 Cal per pint, what could go wrong?

edit: don't tell me you stop at half a pint, that is clearly impossible.

My wife manages to eat only one scoop of half-baked. She must be a witch.

I can do it. Just get me half a pint and I'll demonstrate.
