weight watchers :: ice cream treats

YES!!  Ice cream!!  We love ice cream in our house.  HOWEVER, we NEVER have it in our house.  Why?  Because we LOVE it!  And in turn will eat it.

Now check this out, Weight Watchers has recently released some A-MAZING ice cream treats.  Oh there are so many good things about these products, where do I begin?

“Weight Watchers Ice Cream has great options for snacking and treating yourself wisely during the hectic back-to-school season. Grab a Weight Watchers Snack Size Ice Cream Sandwich for the road – it’s the perfect size to satisfy your desire for something cool, sweet and creamy. For a great snack, try a creamy Weight Watchers Strawberry Smoothie Bar or a refreshing Weight Watchers Strawberry Fruit Bar. Both are great for the entire family as they are made with real fruit.  And for a treat at the end of the day, indulge in a Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Dulcé de Leché dessert bar. You cannot go wrong!”

My husband and I snacked on a treat a night to get through what was sent to us.  I will admit that we did not dislike ANYTHING that was sent to us. I personally loved the ice cream sandwiches and the Dulce de Leche bar….my husband’s favorite was the de Leche bar too!

Here is what was sent:

• New Weight Watchers Snack Size Ice Cream Sandwiches: Two brand new flavors of Weight Watchers Ice Cream, low fat Vanilla Bean and Dutch Chocolate, have just 80 calories each. The variety pack includes four sandwiches of both flavors with a PointsPlus® value of 2 per sandwich.
• New Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Dulcé de Leché Dessert Bars: A highly indulgent ice cream bar featuring low fat dulcé de leché ice cream with a caramel swirl dipped in dark chocolate. Each bar has a PointsPlus value of 3 per bar and 120 calories.
• New Weight Watchers Strawberry Fruit Bar: A healthier snack option for adults and kids, this bar is made with real fruit and is an excellent source of vitamin C. Plus, this delightfully fruity bar has 15 percent fewer calories and 30 percent less sugar than other national leading brands of fruit bars. Each has 70 calories and a PointsPlus value of 2 per bar.
• Weight Watchers Strawberry Smoothie Bar: A blend of low-fat strawberry frozen yogurt and real strawberries. This bar is a good source of vitamin C and has the creamy goodness of a smoothie with just 60 calories and a PointsPlus value of 2 per bar.

Now if you are not familiar with the “PointsPlus“, it is simply the amount of points that are contained in the treat.  You are allotted a certain amount of points per day according to your weight and goals. Here is a little more on it:

With Weight Watchers, every food has a PointsPlus value, which takes into account a food’s protein, carbs, fat, and fiber. Using advancements in nutritional science, we’ve developed a formula that helps us wrap it all up into one easy-to-use, number. You’ll get a daily personalized PointsPlus Target, so you know how much to eat to lose weight safely―while feeling satisfied.
