    I have managed to stay away this cookie season. You'll survive, just remember...everything in moderation!

    It's all about portion control as long as it fits into your caloric intake you're going to be okay!! :smile: looks delicious btw. I'm into sweets I always have icecream and cookies, and candy, so this is coming from an expert.

    Yeah, looks like a real problem. I'll happily dispose of them for you...into my own belly.

    I would gladly take the Trios off your hands. :smiley:

    But I agree with above. Make them fit and enjoy a couple.

    You know, I had some this year again... and I was actually sorely disappointed. There are so many WAY better ways of spending your calories.

    Put them in a dish with a 0.25 per cookie "self monitored" donation request. You get rid of the cookies and you might afford a shopping cart rental if you're lucky :wink:

    It isn't particularly hard to give away cookies. If you say, " we got a bunch of cookies would you like to take some?" to just a few people that pile will be gone pretty fast.

    I want to try those s'mores! I have the other kind in my region.

    I don't see any Thin Mints so they did show some mercy on your soul. Enjoy the cookies!

    OMG!! I would go nuts that is my biggest weakness (hence my profile pic) but you know you can't go overboard or guilt and pounds will settle on your mind and waistline and neither are nice to have hanging around so I say close your eyes and act as if they have all hit the public rest room floor after a toilet overflow. that should help to keep you away. Good luck!

    Back away from the table...slowly. Now turn and RUN!

    That is what I did! (after two s'more cookies and a samosa)

    You don't want to try them. They have crack in them. Seriously addictive stuff. Try at your own peril!

    It seems you work at a library. Perhaps host a kids story time and give them to the kids. Load 'em up on sugar and send them home.

    Haha! I wish! I can only imagine the complaints we would get from the parents.

    Yes, staff have claimed a lot of the boxes for their own. I hope they are gone tomorrow....

    I remember boxes of thin mints arriving in the break room. FYI, a sleeve is 687 calories. Yeah, a sleeve. It was so easy to eat a few, then a few more ...

    It seems like they changed the recipes a couple of years ago on some of the cookies. They don't taste as good to me as they did in years past. Because of that I don't feel like I'm missing out anymore.

    Pfft resell those for $3 a box. You'll be sold out in an hour easy.

    Yes, pass the problem to someone else. :D

    Amazing that with our obesity rate, the Girl Scouts don't make sugar-free or reduced-calorie cookies.

    I'd bring a blanket the next day.

    Every time someone complains about Obesity in America I hearken back to moments like this where even if you're trying your best someone somewhere is always trying to shove calorie-packed munchies at you.
