    Thank God today is a full out cheat day because the cookies came this morning and, well, let's just say my husband won't have to hide as many! Samoas-yumm! so proud of you all who have resisted the evil temptation. I think I'll be doing a double spin class tomorrow morning.

    I am going to buy one box of the thin mints and one box of the lemonades...I figure I'll do better instead of purchasing the 6 boxes of each that I would normally buy...smh just thinking about the amount of calories I used to eat...

    I fight cookies with clowns. When I know they'll be around I dress up for it and they leave me alone!

    I'm a second grade teacher, and it's well-known among the student body that I will buy one box from each Girl Scout in my class each year. My favorites are the caramel delites and the shout-outs. This year, I made sure to buy my least favorites...thin mints, lemonades, and the peanut butter sandwiches...and to immediately box them up and send every one of them to my brother at college in Ohio. I can't be trusted with those things around. Sooooo delicious.

    This is one of the only times of year I am grateful to have food allergies because Thin Mints would definitely be my downfall otherwise. :)

    Thin mints aren't so bad for you and they are pretty yummy

    I have cases in my house - I am the cookie mom this year. I have been pretty good but i have indulged. Just remember you can buy cookies to support our troops. None of the guilt or calories.

    I like the ones with chocolate and coconut and the thin mints or whatever they are called. I can not have them in any quantity as I am unable to control myself around them. And who knows what might happen....

    Girl Scout cookies freeze. Just sayin' :P

    LOL

    I used to be a Girl Scout and I'm a sucker for Thin Mints and the Tagalongs....<drool> But you can always portion them out 2 each into snack-bags (the little half-size ziplocs) and freeze them. Then you can indulge in a little treat (2 cookies) instead of pigging out on the whole box.

    RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY! Girl Scout cookies are baked by the devil.

    They sure are! Its a sin to eat those things. I had to draaaaag myself away from this girl and her table at work. Cuz I wouldve bought the box and would have eaten the whole box! I looooove the dosidos...peanut butter mmmmm.

    I have eaten a whole box on the way home, hid the empty, and then had MORE at home the same day!!! Not his year though, they look like cute little girls, but they're actually demons in pigtails. Do you REALLY think it's an accident that they start selling those things to coincide with "resolution fatigue" setting in at this time of the year??

    We've gotten a few boxes. I only eat the serving size or less. Like today, I have had two thin mints. Good enough for me!
