    That was my big mistake! I should have remembered:

    I'm sure you'll remember next time. Lucky there are friends around to remind you of these most important facts of life.

      There are 3 peices of Iced Madeira Cake (with chocolate bits on top) in the fridge, I can have one if I want. BUT I promised myself that today was going to be a NO CAKE DAY (obviously that was before I knew about the free cake). :rolleyes: So do I eat the cake and break my promise or abstain and feel like a saint? :confused: The Lounge: I need your decision! :-D

        in a nice way of course. I would eat the cake and then tell everyone how good it was. ;)

          Use the same counting method as I would when I go out to the pub. The only slices of cake, or in my case beers, that you have to count are the ones you buy. You see, if it's free then it has no value and so it can't 'really' exist. There is no cake.

          Exactly. The same with cigarettes, if you smoke someone else's then you are a non smoker still.

          Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

                Bend the rules of your mind. Its Friday. Eat you Cake. You still maintain Ethics by not eating other 2 cakes :) Walk a mile today and enjoy it.

                  What a silly idea. :laugh: Mrs Wife has a cup with "I'd give up chocolate, but I'm no quitter!" written on it.

                    As someone who is on a diet (I am eating 1/2 portions and it works great). My suggestion would be to eat half a piece slowly - that way you can enjoy the taste and not feel guilty. Alternatively get someone to upset you, make sure you have lots of mascara running down your face, then stuff all three pieces in your mouth as quickly as you can making sure you get lots of chocolate everywhere :laugh:

                              Stop poisoning yourself with carbs which are directly linked to almost every modern ailment and have a delicious fatty steak for lunch with salad instead.
