I had an obessesion with ice cream my freshmen year... breyer's cherry vanilla ice cream... i had 3 heaping bowls everyday. I gained about 25 lbs, and i'm short 5ft even. So yeah i was HUGE!!! Eventually i got bored of it, and now i have it every once in a while... i would say find other food that's healthier. Have ice cream every once in a while, and have a small proportion. They say nothing taste as good as the first bite! So cherish the first bite... and go easy on the rest of the ice cream.

Hi,
When you DO eat icecream, use a small bowl and a teaspoon (a small spoon) to eat it. There's a psychological difference that will make you think you've eaten more. You'll be more likely to feel bad about eating a second helping, etc.
Find an alternative obsession, or something to think about when you see Icecream that either takes your mind off it, or repulses you.
Maybe if you were really worried about it, you could try to condition yourself to hate ice-cream through a very nasty experience - such as mixing a disgusting salty sandwhich spread with a portion of ice-cream, then forcing yourself to eat it.
You could ask your family members to hide the ice-cream behind the bread in the freezer or something?
If you're worried about your weight, maybe you can discourage yourself from eating ice-cream, and try to ease a little of it off by making a comittment to walk around the block (or somewhere a sizeable walk wherever you live) 5 times every time you eat ice-cream.
If you have problems when you see ice-cream in shops, try saving up to buy something you'd really like (which isn't icecream 0=). Think about it any time you want to spend money on ice-cream.
Hope one of those helps. Just keep trying to think of ways to make ice-cream a true enemy!
