    Just eat 1 or 2 a day, plan it or whatever. No need to deprive yourself. I bought 3 boxes and they're gonna last me a long time. And if they don't they fit into my macros anyway. :)

    If you bought them, and you don't want them just pawn them off on someone else.

    I want to get hit up for GS cookies. I was a girl scout until I was in college. I LOVE cookie season.

    See how long you can make them last. Make a game of it.

    Or allow yourself only one per day. Have some fun with it. Don't make it something dreadful. Mine lasted all the way to July (6 boxes).

    I offered to buy four boxes... any flavor... IF and ONLY IF the little girl scout would donate them. I gave the family ideas such as taking them to an old folks home, mailing them to soldiers stationed overseas, and so on. They LOVED the idea. I LOVE showing my support, but I don't want it on my lips or my hips.... hahaha...

    That is so sweet! I'll be sure to think of this next time a little girl comes by and offers me some. Brilliant idea, no clue why I hadn't thought of it before.

    We put them in the freezer and have a few. I have to support the girls in my school, but I could have just donated money now that I think about it. However, I know I will stay on track more if I will allow myself to have a few on the weekend. I also ordered some to share with my students.

    only eat the serving size. they last forever (mine lasted over ayear in a sealed container) and they're only 150 calories for the serving size. that way you can enjoy them EVERY day. instead of in one day then have a sour stomache and alot of guilt/=

    I do what I do every year. I always order a ridiculous amount from my 3 nieces. I keep a box of my fave, and give the rest to coworkers. I don't freak out about gs cookies though, or any junk food. I mostly keep it healthy. if it's something I really want, and I have the calorie allowance, I'll eat it. if I don't, I pass.

    I bought some from my neice and when they came in I told my neice and sister to deliver them to a soup kitchen, hospital or to someone less fortunate. I would have but if they came in the door I would have morphed into the cookie monster.

    I bought them from my neighbors daughter. When I get them they are going straight to my local food pantry :smile:

    I like this idea. I know a couple other posters have mentioned it as well. donating sounds better than giving to my coworkers
