A little problem...

On Wednesday I am going to sample cakes for my wedding. I am on my first week of Phase 2 and I am scared about how this is going to affect me!!! I know I am going to try some of the cakes. I don't know how I should plan for this (because of course it will be above my 100 calories of sweets per day!!!!!). Please help!

Some things just can't be avoided. I think this is one of those things.


Here are a couple of strategies:


* Drink lots of water before, during and after.


*Employ the 3-bite rule - no more than three bites per sample.


* If you trust your fiance's judgement....let him do most of the tasting.


* Don't skip meals thinking you'll be making up the calories in cake.


* Continue right where you left off the next day - no need to restart anything.


Good luck and enjoy!

How exciting!! Don't you just love wedding planning?!?! How fantastic! CONGRATULATIONS!!

I'm glad to see that Karen isn't too worried about it. See, have a couple bites of each and make sure you pick a good one and have fun!!
