I know how I am. If I open a box of cookies, I will eat them all. If I open a box of cookies and pre-portion them, I will eat three portions of them. But then I decided to do this (see below) and have those nasty numbers staring at me, and now I will always think twice before I over-eat Girl Scout cookies! Hope this helps some of you with a control issue as big as mine!

    I just look at the number of cookies in the box vs how much they charge for 'em and that keeps out of my house entirely. lol

    I solved my girl scout cookie problem by not buying any this year. But I love your idea and may need to implement it with my latest love: cashew almond pistachio squares!

    LOL that's great. No GS cookies here but makes me want to go with a big black marker pen to "all" the high cal stuff put in the pantry by my diet sabotaging family :O
