Let them eat cake

After church today, Lizzie and I went to McAlister's for chili. Sitting there I was staring at the above point of purchase material. Yeah, why can't I skip the meal and eat cake? There are so many answers to this question it doesn't even make sense that I'm asking it.  Things like sugars and simple carbohydrates kick my insulin into overdrive and then my cells don't use it to it makes my liver over express triglycerides, and I'm sure that I'm not expressing that one right. The bottom line is that I just can't eat cake. But that is just the point with me. I would have gladly given up the chili, and everything else I eat up for a piece of that cake. But then it would have flooded my blood with insulin that wouldn't have been used and caused extreme hunger which would result in a binge of cake. If only my body would cooperate with itself. Doesn't that cake look awesome?
