Ice cream must die!

I had a breakdown yesterday with the ice cream. I'm maintaining, so I thought I could handle a half gallon of double churn ice cream in my freezer. I was SO wrong. I had the spoon in hand and kept making trips back to the freezer to have a bite. After my third bite (large quarter cup size spoonfuls), I read the back of the container and it said "14 servings" were in the container. There was NO way I could last through those urges for that long.

I brought the container over to the sink, and turned the hot water on it until i could get it smushy enough to make its way into the garbage disposal.

I felt so embarrassed and ashamed.

Anyone else have a breakdown after maintenance? 

I'm not maintaining but I have the worst weakness for ice cream. So much in fact that I literally cannot buy it, otherwise  I will get through a whole large tub in less than a few sittings. It is my favorite food of all time, so I miss it a lot, but I feel your pain, I've had to throw it away before as well to make sure I don't eat the whole thing in one go. Such a waste of such a beautiful thing :(

It was so good too. coffee chip. ah man. delicious. I'm glad it's gone tho. RIP ice cream.

I have been maintaining my weight for many years now, but things that taste great are tough to resist, I wouldnt consider it a breakdown, you're being too hard on yourself :)  I love ice cream too, so I give in sometimes and buy ben and jerry's half baked (Mmmm) and enjoy it and try not to feel bad about eating more of it than I should. But for the most part I avoid having it (and other snack foods that have the same effect on me) around.

I have the same problem, Ice cream by the kilo+

Solution? I only get ice cream from ice cream parlous, one or two scoops at a time, and on those days I budget it into my calories (maybe I skip bread, and have a salad instead. Or I might skip having carbs with my dinner. Something that won't leave me feelign deprived) - at 350-450cal for two scoop in a cup I don't mind saving cals elsewhere, especially since it's not an everyday thing.

Plus, ice cream from a tub never tastes as good as when you buy it straight from the shop!

LOL!  I love ice cream.  One of the few sweet treats I truly adore...besides rice krispie treats! :)  Put a bag of chex mix in fronbt of me, however, and it's GONE GONE GONE!  :)

You are too hard on yourself, tho...a few bites of ice cream won't kill ya...but probably better to buy the little pints if you know you love it like that.  Or...mmmmm....sugar free FUDGE BARS AND CREAMSICLES!  Yum!  Only 40 cals and 20 cals, respectively.  My fav sweet treat w/ no guilt whatsoever.

Ah it was the fact that I kept going back for it. Like it was calling me. I don't like feeling like a prisoner in my own home. I live alone and all, so the death of ice cream was okay :) It was a rough situation.

After the ice cream death, I started getting into the box of trix. However, I didn't kill it like I did the ice cream. I'm doing better. It was just a stressful week I guess. Maybe I'll try ice cream again. :)

I went through a pint a week over the summer.

Ice cream drives me nuts. I don't even keep any in the house ever. My roommate used to go through a pint a day (no joke) and I sit there and watch in utter envy. If I do splurge now I tend to get something that is just so ridiculously rich in chocolate or so sweet (B &J creme brulee) that I can only handle a few bites before putting it back. I miss coffee chip :o(
