Cake
For the first time in my entire life, I’ve turned my back and walked away from a chocolate cake. You see, I have not met a cake I didn’t like. A chocolate cake would almost always make me come back for seconds. But today, I was able to say no and not break down in tears. 
After 100 hours of Jazzercise and going down one pant-size smaller [insert applause here], I’m not about to ruin it. The truth is, it didn’t even feel like I was depriving myself. The majestic cake that sat on the kitchen counter at the office just didn’t hold much appeal to me. It was two thin layers of cake smothered in mocca frosting. Jut the sight of all that frosting made me cringe from the sweetness. Now if it had been a Red Ribbon cake, I may not have been able to say no that easily, especially if it was the choco mousse cake. Ooooh, just the thought makes my mouth water.
Anyway, I did complete my 100th Jazzercise session. It’s been 7 months since I started. There were days when I didn’t feel like going, especially since it took a while before I started seeing results. But I have to say, I’ve been pretty disciplined about keeping my routine. Strictly speaking, I have not lost weight but I feel lighter and I have more energy. Close inspection of my thighs only reveal a few dimples here and there. Overall, I feel healthier and stronger than I’ve ever been. Now if I can look as good as that 85-year old lady in my class when I’m her age, that’s the only reason I need to keep going.
