Girl Scout Cookies



Recommended Posts

I still want to support the girls, so when I get asked I will do the gift of caring or troop to troop where they are donated to soldiers and such, but man I miss Thin Mints!

I think I did pretty good. I brought 2 boxes of Thin Mints, 1 for me and 1 for my mom. So far, I've just been following the allowed serving size, which is 4. Plus I'm drinking lemon Water to help curb any cravings, since I'm on a strict carb allowance.

Maybe they could come up with Girl Scout-branded Protein shakes!

That's exactly what I made last night.

My daughter brought a box of thin mints home from work. Rather than choke her :), I made chocolate Protein shake and squirted some mint extract into it.

Not bad! Not a thin mint, but it got me through a near disaster!!!

I haven't seen a girl scout all year, except on the internet. In my previous town they would have been all over, here, nothing.

I bought two boxes of the thin mints and ate six Cookies. The family ate the rest and I won't buy any more boxes. Previous years I would have purchased 12 boxes and could easily eat half a box of cookies on one sitting. I call this progress!!!!

The mint chocolate Quest bars taste a lot like Thin Mints. That is what I hope will get me through!

I buy several boxes but only 2 go home with me, the rest are donated to the Girl Scouts military program ( the Cookies are sent overseas to our troops ) WIN WIN !!☺

I don't buy girl scout Cookies because the Keebler Elves make identical cookies for a fraction of the price all year long. I buy them occasionally and have no problem eating one cookie a day

The only thing is buying Cookies from the girls supports their troop and that's how they get to go on trips and do service projects so I try to buy when possible. It's basically a donation.

I bought five boxes of Thin Mints from a coworker. Gave two boxes each to my college daughters and one box to my mom. Too deadly for me to play with.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
