    Frosting without cake is a negative calorie food. Congrats on that.
    That's fantastic. And so much tastier than celery.

    I'm eating celery with chocolate frosting as we speak. I'm practically invisible.
    I don't like to waste my negative calories on celery. And now that I know frosting without cake is a negative calorie food, I will never eat celery again!

    Sharing too much frosting with your new best friend Mike can lead to pregnancy.

    This. You should probably be tested.

    I'm trying to figure out how many calories worth of frosting I just ate. Here are the facts, please help:
    Baby shower
    Costco cake
    Cake was cut into approximately 48 pieces
    The baby is due on April 3rd
    It was not my baby shower
    I am not pregnant

    I ate:
    The frosting scraped off the cake knife after cutting approximately 1/2 the cake
    The frosting off the piece of cake the cake server placed on my plate
    The frosting that my new best friend Mike scraped off his cake and placed on my plate

    I drank:
    1 cup of DIET Coke, mostly ice, so subtract those calories :bigsmile:

    I did NOT eat:
    Any actual cake, so subtract those calories too :drinker:

    More facts:
    I did not bring my food scale or my measuring cups because I fear the stares of others
    I currently have a sugar high that is quickly wearing off

    Question:
    How much frosting did I eat?
    Please note: It would be helpful for me (for today's frositng outing and those yet to come) if you could provide your answer in TBSP and cups
    :love: mmmmmmFROSTING


    I can't answer that until you tell me what time the train left the station and how fast it was traveling:bigsmile:
    I live in San Diego, so I have no idea about trains. Ask me about ships, boats, kayaks, or dolphins.

    Ah then clearly the answer is those calories didn't count!!!! You stay classy San Diego!! :wink:

    If it wasn't attached to the cake the calories don't count.
    That seems reasonable.

    That's a good idea. Though I wonder if I might need to go to rehab.

    Now one thing we have not taken into account is the color of the frosting. As we all know purple is the highest in caloric content where as mint green is the lowest. Now if any of the colors were touching then it becomes a whole new calculation.

    How do you make yourself throw up when you don't have a gag reflex?

    Problem: All my frosting was white. Except for the chocolate mousse in the center.

    But the Herpivia isn't!

    Besides, I don't want to be your hidden snuggler. A moped like you should know that.

    I can't throw up. I haven't thrown up since 1991 when I was pregnant AND had the stomach flu.
