Those Darn Girl Scouts Cookies



Recommended Posts

3 boxes of thin mints and 2 boxes of samoas have made there way in my house. The hubby had ordered them from a neighbor. I so badly wanted to rip into a box and have a cookie only because they are thin mints! I stared at the Cookies and decided my cream of shrimp Soup was going to have to do for dinner. :( But the SF popscicle sure did taste good!

Oh good for you, way to go!! You don't need those Cookies I bet they taste horrid!

Shame on your husband, tell him to go lock them up in his trunk or take them to work for his mates.

I hear ya, my niece was selling them and I was a nice auntie and got orders from co workers and friends and ended up with 180 boxes being delivered to me so I could get them passed out to all who ordered and some ended up staying at my house as well for my husband. I told him I don't care if you eat then I just DO NOT WANT to be told how good they taste and I have been ok about them but the other night he made a bag of popcorn and I have now forbid him from making popcorn in the house until im far enough along to partake, popcorn has always been a favorite of mine and as im laying in bed trying to go to sleep my mouth is just watering like crazy, I finally had to close the door and light a candle was afraid I was going to drown in my own saliva........lol

I hope they eat them quick and get them out of your sight, thank goodness Girl Scout Cookies only come around once a year :}~

Having them in the house is always a challenge. I also had bought some awhile back, and now they've been consumed (still waiting on my ins. approval). Thankfully, the scale did not go up.

If you want to support a Girl Scout without eating them yourself, they have a great "Troop to Troop" program where you pay for Cookies that are sent to soldiers serving overseas.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
