With it being the period of lent I decided this would be a GREAT time to give up cake. After all it is something I love and will miss and will make me reflect on how little others have right? If they can cope with so little - I will cope without cake!
I actually started 2 days early and the first two days went great. The third day I had pancakes (they aren't ACTUAL caked in my head so that was fine) and today I had my biggest test ever.
I work in a hotel where they provide me with my food each day and there is always cake on offer. Normally two if I am honest. Anyways, today they had my absolute favourite cake which is the almondy one. I WANTED THAT CAKE SO BAD! Everyone sat with me was eating it, but I stood my ground and I had my dinner followed by a low fat fruit yoghurt.
I also weighed myself this morning which should hopefully keep me spurred on. 4 days with no cake and I was 4 lbs down on the scales! WOOHOO!
So 40 lbs down by the end of lent right? Haha okay so I AM kidding, I know it is mainly water weight and it wont keep going at this rate, but if I can be somewhere over half a stone down by the end of lent I will be most pleased!
This month I shall keep you updated on my life without cake! Wish me luck...
