So there I am, mid afternoon, I haven't had my lunch yet because I've had back to back classes (I'm a junior in college), and I have time to run and get a coffee on my break in class. So, while I'm standing there waiting for my non fat latte (my little treat), the cafeteria lady comes right up to me and says "do you want some cake? it's free?" and shoves a slice of chocolate mocha cream cake right in my face.....free cake??!?! are you kidding me?!! But you know what? I said "no thank you" got my coffee and walked back to class. Anyone who has a sweet tooth like me will appreciate how hard that was!! hahaha so I had to share, because I knew only you fellow MFP-ers could truly understand.

Free cake?? :noway: come on.... :laugh:

    Being a junior in college myself and knowing how beautiful the words "free" and "cake" go together, I can totally appreciate your willpower. You're doing awesome, girl! :):):)

    Doesn't it make you feel great to know that you were in control of the situation. You can build on that great feeling!!! Way to go!!!

    Good job! I completely understand. I walked by the bakery at the grocery store and commented to the cake decorator that watching her was making me hungry and she said, "I have an extra brownie do you want one?" I said, "no thanks I'm dreaming from afar"...... very hard to do.

    That is so awesome!! Great job! I know what you mean though. I'm a flight attendant and the pilots always offer us candy and stuff and I always say no!! It's hard but I just think of all the extra minutes I'll have to exercise to burn those calories so I just say no.. like it's a drug! ha ha ha!
