bwahaha, guaranteed to work! When I was in my early twenties (and a whopping 110 lbs) I used to go on brownie diets: make a pan of brownies and eat them. Still 110 lbs.! *sigh* Those days a re long gone. I even look at a brownie now I put on 5 lbs.

I remember the old Bill Cosby skit about chocolate cake being a perfect breakfast food as long as you had it with grapefruit juice. I can do grapefruit juice.

chocolate has always been my choice for breakfast -and the only time in my life I weighed more than 120 was before my transplant--I am the only one in my family who is not carrying an extra 50 or more lbs so I will print out some copies to send their way

Mine too. If we have left over dessert I always eat it for breakfast. Does in only count if it's chocolate?

My only problem would be hiding the rest of that cake from myself ~ ~ ~

It's the caffeine in the chocolate.

Caffeine and sugar. Same ingredients that go into those energy drinks.

My husband's Mom would let them eat chocolate cake for breakfast in a bowl with milk on it. My hubby is 5'11" and only weighs 169#. His Mom was very thin also. Maybe there is something to it!!!
