Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero
A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople. I loved the community of that place and the support I got there. It was at the height of us being on our game. That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation. You start to feel human. You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere. You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned. Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away. We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively. When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...
Last year when you got a marble cake with a combo of white and chocolate icing that was my favorite cake ever. Best of both worlds all in one cake! Perfect for an indecisive guy like me, lol.
ReplyDeleteI like all kinds of cake, but my two favorites are German Chocolate and Angel Food. So pretty much polar opposites. My kiddo's favorite is marble cake.
ReplyDeleteChocolate is my preference but die to a long gone childhood tradition, I have a particular fondness for ice cream cake, especially Baskin Robbins mint chocolate chip with fudge icing.
ReplyDeleteI have a few that are all at the top of the list: Lemon Cake, White Cake (boxed...love the spongy texture), with whip cream frosting, and my favorite as a kid that still holds true is Confetti Angel Food Cake with no frosting...just straight up fluffy clouds. LOL
