Key lime pie
It’s fruity. It’s fresh. But a 3.3-oz slice of key lime pie delivers about 450 calories and at least 14 grams of fat. Beware of sugary desserts disguised as fruit. A dollop or two of strawberry topping, for example, can add over 100 calories to low-fat ice cream.
RENEWED EATING: Dip just the tips of ripe strawberries into melted dark chocolate. “Dark chocolate has a stronger taste so you’ll eat less,” says Susan Roberts, Ph.D. As an even lower calorie, high-fiber alternative, dip apple slices into the melted dark chocolate.

Ice cream in a waffle cone
You may think you’re saving on sugar by opting for the waffle cone over the sugar cone, but at 4 grams of sugar per serving in a regular sugar cone, the saving isn’t too significant. You’ll also get at least 16 grams more carbohydrates in a waffle cone since they’re bigger – 30 grams versus 10 grams (standard sugar cone size) per serving.
RENEWED EATING: Skip the cones altogether and pick a cup. You’ll cut out all the added carbs and sugars in one clean scoop. Go one step further and pick low-fat frozen yogurt made with real fruit instead of ice cream and save on fat.
