The Girl Scout Cookies I ordered just came in...Caramel deLights..70 calories a cookie. It's so hard having just one when I could easily eat the whole box since I wait basically all year for them...haha.

    I ran a half marathon yesterday and after the race there were Girl Scouts EVERYWHERE selling their delicious cookies to all us famished runners. Those little girls are pret-ty smart business women haha

    I could do some serious damage to a box of Caramel de Lights! Those are my fav!

    Make little ziploc baggies of 1 or 2 cookies so you can have a little snack pack once a day or so.

    Well the problem is I'm currently unemployed (grrr bad economy), so i'm stuck at home all day with them sitting in the kitchen, haah.

    I've heard you can freeze the cookies, so at least it will take you longer to eat them, should you break into the freezer! :tongue:

    Try having 2 girls in girl scouts and approximately 250 cookies in your house at one time. Luckily, most of them are gone now but I did order some to keep as well and let's just say these damn cookies are going to be the death of me. This is exactly why I don't buy sweets or chips. If I just keep healthy food in my house, I don't have a choice when I'm hungry BUT to eat the healthy food.

    GGRrrr my downfall1! lol.. and then I found out how good the trefoil ones with nutella!!! :ohwell:

    I've hidden them so I don't see them as much, these ones will last longer than a week. lol

    I was talking to a friend and we wonder why they don't sell them at the end of the year when less people are on diets and people have more money, before Christmas buys! New year brings resolutions to lose weight and save money!! Oh well. hehe

    Ooooo Thin Mints... I love them so. There is a shake place close to my apt that uses Herbalife products. The guy said they have a limited edition Mint protein powder. He made me an oreo shake and put in a scoop of that powder.... exactly like thin mint cookies. I nearly died then and there! Don't know about the other GS cookies..... they make 2 other GS like shakes, Samoas and Tagalongs. I personally don't buy them in any more :sad: but my mom still gets the Thin Mints and freezes them. It's so hard to only eat ONE serving!

    Yeah, I've seen Edy's ice cream in the grocery store has Thin Mint and Caramel deLight (Samoas) limited edition ice cream, I haven't yet tried it though.

    This is why I don't buy them (former GS!) - I love thin mints too much. They're really made from crack...lol

    Before joining MFP i bought 3 boxes of girl scout cookies. I am dreading the day they deliver the boxes to me. I might just bring them in the lounge and let the other people enjoy them so i can stay on track .

    This is our second year with Girl Scouts, so we've had them in the house for weeks now. Honestly the selling and cookie booths and all that fun stuff has completely turned me off to the cookies themselves, at least until last saturday when i had to do a quality check on the shortbreads. if i get into the lemonades i'm doomed. just doomed.

    hubby, on the other hand, was a ravenous beast last night. he likes them all. he's welcome to them.

    I ordered 5 boxes, now I am trying to figure to find a way to share the love with other people so I don't eat all 5 boxes.
