Jenny - I'm with you on this one! Heather - I'm definitely going to pick up a copy asap! Lara - I would totally tell you this exact thing! I actually feel no guilt over eating this cake. I almost feel like I should, but I don't. I've been consuming way more cake than a normal person should (let alone one that is *trying* to lose weight) but for some reason I'm ok with it. Maybe because this cake is not only delicious but also represents super happy memories. Yeah I'll go with that one :) Alison – I’ll take some cheesecake too ;)

What would you tell me if this were a post about my wedding cake?! I know you would tell me to enjoy it! You are exactly right...you get ONE wedding cake and this is it! The good news is, it won't be around to tempt you next week ;) Just enjoy it and know that you can get back on your CLC as soon as it's all gone :) Elina!

I think picking up Intuitive Eating (saw your comment) is an awesome idea. It'll help you get rid of the food police & making food illegal too. I do that myself & actually had to toss some ice cream last night because of it. I'd NEVER toss the cake though ;) But I understand where your head is. I think making things no longer "off-limits" will really help! Hang in there! I’m sorry you are struggling with the cake! I think picking up Intuitive Eating (saw your comment) is an awesome idea.

We didn't save any wedding cake to eat for our 1 year and now I'm glad lol. It was too much of a problem the first time around. Our cake was so delish. What a beautiful bride you made. lol.

Your plan to share it with friends sounds good :) Your breakfast looks fabulous! I love the variety of ingredients. I know what you mean about that cake thing.

I'm odd in that I dno't like cake that much. So we didn't even have a cake at our wedding. Instead, people had a choice of cheesecake, chocolate cake, and something else. I had the cheesecake.

Today is the cake's last day in the house, so this problem will take care of itself :) I also think it's time to pick up a copy of Intuitive Eating. Thanks for making a reference to the book. Oh and yes, I'm sure the bakery does smaller cakes. It's just won't be "my cake"... yeah, messed up thinking. I know. Innz, I think the "crack" is butter. Chocolate butter. Mmm :D Have a piece of chocolate for me today, will ya? Kelly, we froze the top of our cake so that’s why I can’t freeze the rest of it.
