Along with so many others I struggle with my weight.  For the past 6 months I have been working very hard to shed all of this extra weight that I have put on.  I have lost a total of 66 pound since I had my son in July.  I have found that calorie counting is an effective, simple way to go.  A few days before Christmas I received the best package of all from MomSelect and Weight Watchers.  In a box, in a cooler, packed on dry ice was the most wonderful thing of all!  It was a cooler full of Weight Watchers Ice Cream Treats!

I know that many of you have to be wondering how they were not only taste wise but also calorie wise.  These great treats varied in calories. They were the perfect way to end the day.  It is how I reward myself when I am trying to lose weight.  If I have a good day and stay under my target calories I will treat myself to a treat.  To be honest I have been buying these Weight Watchers treats for the past 6 months while I have been trying to lose weight.  I was super excited to see new flavors in my box of treats.  I know that you are dying to know what I tried and what I thought so here it is.

The first ones that I tried were the Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Bars.  I know that it is a mouthful to say but the name is well worth the taste.  It had sweet, chocolate and was big enough to last through the pleasure.  The only thing that I noticed is that it is a little too artificial tasting for me.  I am not saying that I did not eat them.  I am also not saying that I would not buy them to eat again.  The dark chocolate was just enough to give you that chocolate fix while you are watching your calorie intake.  These Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Bars only have 110 calories and are so worth it!

The next ice cream bars I indulged in were the Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Dulce de Leche Ice cream Bars.  These were by far my favorite of the bunch.  They have a creamy caramel taste and are again covered in my favorite thing… Chocolate!  The biggest trouble with these is that the kids also LOVED them!  This meant that it was not long before they were gone.  I have been back to the store to get more of the Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Dulce de Leche Ice Cream Bars.  They are only 120 calories and well worth it!  I highly recommend these treats!

Weight Watchers Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Ice Cream Bars were not a disappointment either.  Even though I am not fond of strawberry ice cream, these ice cream bars did not let me down in anyway.  Just as the others these were a wonderful way to end the day!  They have only 100 calories which make them the best bet yet calorie wise.  I think that it is again important to mention that the kids LOVED these ice cream bars and that I was lucky to get one at all!  If you like chocolate and you like strawberries you will love these treats.

I was so excited to see the Snack Sized Chocolate Fudge Bars in my cooler.  I love the giant chocolate fudge bars but do not always feel like I have been good enough to justify 100 + calories.  These Snack Sized Chocolate Fudge Bars are delicious and are only 45 calories each.  This means that if you have had too many calories in a day but really need a fix you can indulge.  It also means that when you CRAVE chocolate, you can have 2 and still not be over doing your calorie intake.  These also hide well in the freezer due to their compact size.  I was able to have some before the kids found them!

These were another delicious option for those days that you are a little short on calories.  These Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bars are only 80 calories but do not lack in flavor at all.  They have some extra chocolate shell and are creamy and delicious.  Not only did I have to fight the kids for these ones but I had to fight Rob as well.  I only wish I had a lock for my freezer.  It may be worth the investment.

I would like to thank Mom Select and Weight Watchers for this wonderful opportunity.  I feel that Weight Watchers has hit the nail on the head with these wonderful new treats.  Not only do I enjoy them for their taste but they are a great treat when you are trying to lose weight.  I was amazed at how much the kids enjoyed them as well.  I think that it is important to teach them that it is alright to have a treat but that overdoing it is just not necessary.  The fact is that they have a genetic disposition to be overweight.  It is my goal to try and teach them to eat the right foods and enjoy a treat or two a day.  These is no need to over do.  Happy weight loss in the new year!
