Great job! If you have worked that hard and have the discipline, cake is not a big deal. Good for you. :bigsmile:0

If you've budgeted calories for it I see no reason why you shouldn't have it. The person needs to shut up.0

If its in your calorie goal EAT!!!0

I've lost 60 lbs, maintained it for over a year and a half and during the last 2 1/2 years, I've still eaten cake, bacon cheeseburgers, chips, cookies, etc... I figure as long as I eat healthy foods the majority of the time, it's all good. If I couldn't still have the foods I enjoy every now and then, there's no way I would have been able to lose the weight and keep it off.0

Denying yourself of food will only make things worse. There is nothing at all wrong with fitting a piece of cake into your calorie count per day. Even if you go over your daily allocation, it is only one day and one piece of cake.0

you should eat cake whenever you want. I would not make food a reward though. You are not a dog.0

Puhleeeeaase eat some cake!

and chips
You cannot deprive yourself from all of your food loves
You are kicking *kitten* with your weight loss - just keep doing what you're doing.0 -

I've lost 66lbs and frequently go a bit mad, not everyday obviously and not all day either but for example I've eaten 10 digestive biscuits (they are my weakness) that's 800 calories!! I'm not going to beat myself up and neither should you!!0

As title suggests Iost 13lb & had a slice of cake? I got slated for it & told I'm 'ruining my good work'. I've been on a diet for last 2-3 months. I feel like one slice of cake is my reward for not having any got last 3 months!
What does anyone feel, should I of shouldn't I have had my cake ( & scoffed it down while watching dexter?)
You are an adult, a mom, and you should eat whatever works for you. You've lost 13 lbs in the past three months? well good for you!
(I'm actually *not* a fan of the "cake as a reward* school of thought, but more - like many people here - a fan of the "this is a lifestyle, not a diet/punishment". and as such, you should certainly fit in occassional or daily treats. I'm actually not even a cake person, but i love love love good bread and every now and then - like today for lunch - i'll "splurge" and get a roll. as long as it fits in my calorie count, it's fine)0 -
I eat dessert pretty much every single day.
I plan on eating cake tomorrow. With a scoop of ice cream. It will be delicious.
I love this thought. I had a planned ice cream every Sunday night while watching TB and I love it! I like what MyJourney1960 says about planning the treats. I do the same thing. Tonight, I want some pizza s I can going to exercise a little more and go bowling afterward. You can eat what you like is smaller amounts whenever you like as long as you plan them! Good luck.0
