You were born under the sign of the chocolate-chip cookie. Sugary desserts are high in calories, and if you eat too many of them, they can cause weight gain. What's more, if sweets are a large part of your diet, you may skimp on more nutritious foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, which are rich in vitamins and minerals and help you fight diseases.
Frozen yogurt is always a better calorie bargain than ice cream.
The local ice cream shop advertises that its frozen yogurt is only 8 calories per ounce. Therefore, an 8-ounce medium serving is only 64 calories. To save calories, I should always buy a smoothie instead of an ice cream cone. Ice cream is a good source of calcium. Frozen Yogurt contains 170 calories for the same small scoop.
