I enjoy, really enjoy, a half of a pint of Haagen-Daz® ice cream … any and all evenings I feel the urge. And I still maintain my ideal weight.
A pint of Haagen-Dax® ice cream has 3.5 servings times 240 calories per serving for a total of 840 calories per pint. A half of a pint of Haagen-Dax® therefore has 420 calories.
When I am otherwise staying on my diet, I richly deserve a bowl of Haagen-Dax® coffee ice cream … every evening, if I so choose. With some Hersey’s Syrup poured on top 😊
But I could not possibly do this if I didn’t have a CapturedDiscipline® Time-Locking Safe and a padlockable Stanley 12.5 inch portable hard plastic tool box … and a padlock. You can buy the tool box at Home Depot for $12.99 (#STST13331) or on Amazon for $9.95 (also, #STST13331). This tool box fits easily in your freezer compartment.
Any evenings, you dish out a half of a pint of Haagen-Daz ice cream into a bowl. A half of a pint of ice cream is a large serving of ice cream.
Then, before you start eating that wonderful bowl of ice cream, you time-lock up, for 23 or 24 hours, all the rest of the Haagen-Daz ice cream you have (pints or quarts, whatever you have).
And then, magically, except for the bowl of ice cream in front of you … there is no more ice cream in your home.
Enjoy.
