      You should totally make a ginger bread house out of them.

      Why? :noway:

      Eat the strudels. Luxuriate in them. Savor them. But just stick to one per day and you'll be fine. I think toaster strudels are infinitely superior to pop tarts!

      can you roll them up and smoke them? maybe the calories wont be absorbed that way.

      I love those things...I eat pretty much what I want as long as it fits into my calories, but I can not buy toaster strudels, pop tarts or oreos. Too much temptation to have in the house! But I would gladly eat one at someone else's house! :-)

      1. it was a big sale & ya know us females love a big sale :wink:

      2. the "I deserve a treat and can have 1 a day." :noway:

      3. Think we can all relate to good intentions however, sometimes it's a real challenge to stick to it! :grumble: :mad: :explode:

      Good Luck cause you're goin need it girl! :laugh:

      That's the easy part. Take 2 tablespoons of milk and whisk in powdered sugar until it is nice and thick. Add a splash of vanilla extract if you want. Boom, extra icing!

      I get a box every now and again and eat one every day until they are gone. I'm still losing! And I'm all about the good deals. Yesterday I got two family size bags of lays for $4, four 12-pack can sodas for $12 (coke products), three boxes of Entenmann's doughnuts for $2 each, 4 cups of shredded mozzarella (kraft) for $4, and 2 boxes of Oatmeal Cream Pies for $3 (the big boxes). Less than thirty bucks to have awesome bag lunches for my husband for a couple of weeks (minus the price of the sandwich fixin's I already own). If I had remembered to bring my coupons, I would have saved even more.

      This is where self-control is learned... :devil:

      I fail to see why this is a problem. If it fits your macros... eat it!

      So my intentions were commendable: I was at Sam's buying frozen berries for my protein smoothies. And my kids saw the TS. I only buy them at the grocery store when they are BOGO free so it's a treat for them. I was gonna say no, but COME.ON! $5.86, but were on sale for $3.86. Thats lunacy!


      It will take us months to finish all 24. And I'm a IIFYM girl. No elimination in our house, just moderation.

      Now I have an insatiable craving for toaster strudel (and extra icing is a given).

      Not surprising that so much of the USA is obese, given the myriad choices of sugary, fat filled snack foods. We don't have even 1/3 of the options here in the Uk that you guys have over there, and even back in the 80s when I first visited, I was stunned at the sheer size of the supermarkets and the quantity of foods in the aisles. I am so glad I was born here, or I for sure would have ended up overweight.
