Limit on whipping cream?

[founditatlast]

I have been making a lot of freezes using whipping cream instead of milk.  It's hot here, I am am used to ice cream.  This is a great substitute but I have gained nearly 3 lbs.  My portions are the correct size in my meals.  But I have 'gone crazy' making stuff with the cartoned (not aerosol) whipping cream.  Is this just a fluctuation not to worry about or should I be limiting my whipping cream intake?

I make my ice cream from whipping cream no problem.Just keep your portions in check.Diet soda also makes a great Popsicle. As women our weight can fluctuate up to 10 pounds a month.Just stay on top of it.

 HI ITS MILLIE,

  HOW DO YOU MAKE HOMEMADE WHIP CREAM AND HOW MANY CARBS DOES IT HAVE?

Hi Millie     Home made whipped cream is easy peasy.    All you need is some heavy whipping cream and a little sweetener.  I like to add some vanilla or other flavoring to it as well... yummm.  Put all in a mixing bowl and whip with a hand mixer until it forms soft peaks.  You wouldn't believe how much better the home made tastes compaired to the store bought.      As far as the carb count goes....that will depend on the carb count of the products that you use.    If you can find it....get the 0 carb heavy whipping cream and always use a 0 carb sweetener

Hi Millie!

They are the same thing.
As always, be sure to read the nutrition label for carb count.

  I have been adding chia seeds to some of my food, for some reason

I haven't experimented with chia seeds but my advice would be to not use them if they aren't helping.

I'm not sure why it would make you feel hungrier  ...Like you, I thought they were supposed to help make you feel full.  I've had a bag in my cabnet for a while now and just hadn't had a chance to try them yet.  I've heard so many good things about eating them.  They are supposed to be very healthy..... 

I just mixed some in a serving of sugar free almond milk with a bit of sugar free french vanilla davinci syrup.....I have to say I really like it    It put me in mind of a thin tapioca pudding.  I'll let you know if I notice it making me hungrier than usual....I sure hope not
