WW Ice Cream

nervousbride06

Hi, is it okay to eat Weight Watchers Ice Cream while pregnant?  I love those little cups of chocolate ice cream but a co-workers said I shouldn't be eating it because it has artificial sweetener in it.

Thanks!

Seriously? Your coworker needs to STFU. Enjoy your ice cream.

I say if you're pregnant, eat the real stuff, unless you like the WW ice cream better.  Artificial sweetener isn't great for you, but unless you're eating WW ice cream at every meal, I wouldn't worry about it.

I wouldn't eat it pregnant or not. It's the real thing or nothing at all. I try to avoid fake food in general.

I'm going to assume you're not still doing WW and that you just happen to like the taste of their ice cream (no judgement...that ice cream is a big part of the reason WW worked for me in the past).  Anyway, minimal artificial sweetener is not a big deal.  If you're super worried about it, just switch to real ice cream.
