It's True! There are NO CALORIES in BIRTHDAY CAKE!

[Poly Pal]

And I am living proof! My birthday was last Wednesday. My sweet wife worked for 3 hours making a dead aunt's secret recipe for chocolate cake frosting (the recipe hasn't been a secret since poor auntie passed on! It is ful of butter and Crisco. Hmmm, maybe auntie ate too much of it?) Well, I ate 4 good size pieces of birthday cake and lost 2.5 lbs this week.

So for all your losers, remember we are changing our lifestyles for the better, but a little (or in my case, alot) birthday cake is good for the soul! (once a year then back on plan!)

4 pieces of cake - you "lucky duck" that would have landed right on my body and stayed there! But, I agree, once a year when another candle is on that cake - celebrate.

Happy Belated and PD for the continued downward march!!

There must me something strange about b-day cake. It must be a freebee from the scale gods. The same thing happen to me, my husband, and Tara when she ate b-day cake. I say we search out b-day partys and have cake for good luck. My husband says it's bad luck not to eat a piece of b-day cake if your at a party must be true. Congradulations on your loss.

Congrats on another year, Poly Pal! Oh, and good work on the loss, too!

Happy Birthday, Poly Pal!

Oh, bless that poor dear aunt! I'm glad her recipe is being shared freely now. CONGRATS on the super weight loss! I guess that crisco and butter helped your body realize you are NOT starving and you shook things up a bit in the metabolism department (that and all those confounded push ups you do!)

Thanks for being a great inspiration. And for making me crave home made chocolate cake with rich chocolate frosting right after breakfast! d'oh!

Lucky you Poly Pal I ate a couple pieces of birthday cake two weeks ago and lost weight too ... although it wasn't quite 2.5 pounds.

I've got another birthday coming up this weekend ... so I'm crossing my fingers! Actually, I'll probably just spend an extra 15 minutes each day this week at the gym *lol*
