    Don't eat the cake! Seriously. You will only feel worse after it. What is a few minutes of flavor if you can eat something more nutritious and feel better about it after you consume it? Try some veggies or a yogurt. You will be happy you did :)

    drink some water, go for a walkk, call a friend...watch a tv show, and put it "out of sight, out of mind" to help!

    You could also try some alternative sweet- such as sugar-free fudgesicles or WW chocolate muffins, or things like that :)

    This.

    But honestly, protein will keep you full and satisfied better than cake!

    Drink water and/or some raw vegetables? Maybe exercise some to forget it? And ditch the cake! You will only regret it later, if you give in.

    Ok, cake doesn't lie! Look at it. It is telling you it is full of fat and sugar just by the way the frosting glistens. The cake is honest. It knows it is bad for you. you know it is bad for you. It is simply trying to take you to the dark side. DON'T GO! Be strong in the force and eat something that loves you. :)
  • If you feel out of control, pour salt or dishwashing soap on the cake. If not, save it for a time when your diary allows for it (I like that idea better) =) Check out Vitalicious deep chocolate muffins at the supermarket next time you go. They're my go-to when I'm craving chocolate.

    ^YES! This happens to me a lot and I always tell myself it's not worth it after. I know I'll feel horrible after, and it's not worth a few minutes of taste. Out of sight, out of mind!

    tumblr is not particularly the best place for motivational pictures. unless, of course you want to be bombarded by pictures of skinny girls and "ABC" diets and "skinny girl" diets.

    and i agree with LisaMarieee. if you are hungry, EAT. go eat some vegetables or something. :indifferent:

    think. is eating cake really worth it? it's unhealthy for you and will do you good. have fruit and yogurt with a bit of cinnamon or something sweet but nutritious and filling

    if you are hungry, EAT lol. just eat something other than cake. have a strong sweet tooth? get some skinny cow ice cream bars. they are delicious and don't kill your calorie goals for the day. =]

    HAHAHA!! This one caused tears of laughter to roll down my face.

    But in all seriousness, try to eat some protein to help curb the cravings. Jerky, peanut butter, egg whites, even a protein shake will be better than the cake.

    Besides the cake is dry and crumbly and actually quite nasty. You don't want it. Blech.

    This. I have Skinny Cow Fudgsicles for such an occasion. Only 100 calories. Very tasty. No guilt.

    A chocolate protein shake should do the trick!
  • I would try the water and find something in your house that is lower calories. I try to keep those 100 calorie bags of cookies for me to eat when I need a treat.
  • okay so it took me a couple of hours to make my decision and the cake is GONE .... no not in my mouth i gave it away (it was a very emotional moment lol) no but i felt better when they were done eating it i would never see it again lol ..... thats a good stepping stone in my journey thank you

    Though it is gone now (YAY!!), you can also do a substitute chocolate fondue by mixing 1 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 tbsp of agave nector. It's only 53 calories and you can dip fruit into it. If it helps to make it more realistic, you can heat it up for a few seconds to have it warm. I use this for when I WANT chocolate fondue, but don't want my butt to grow bigger because of it. :smile:

    one thing I love and am so glad I tried it is yoplait red velvet cake yogurt so delicious and just 110 calories , it's my favirote
  • Chocolate protein bar or chocolate protein shake. Protein will satisfy you longer because it takes a few hours to digest and cure that sweets or chocolate craving.
