Yesterday we celebrated my husband and younger sister's birthdays. My sister Terra made a carrot cake and I made a chocolate Lego cake.
My husband loves to build Lego towers with the kids, so I thought I'd try it out.
The raised areas are marshmallows cut in 1/2, and frosted.
I do have to say that I love chocolate cake, but it's harder to frost. I has only a thin slice of the carrot cake my sister made. It was yummy! She made it with applesauce. It had a limited amount of sugar in it.
*A side note. I stepped on the scale yesterday, and found out that I've lost 20 pounds since the summer! It doesn't really look like I have. I've lost it all over, and not in one spot. My mom says that's the healthiest way.

Love the cake! Very creative and colourful. Well done on your weight loss!! Do you have any tips??!? :D
Tips:
1. Exercise 30 minutes a day.
2. Watch what you eat. I've really reduced my sugar intake. We use a natural plant sugar.
3. We use a lot of whole wheat wraps. Costco sells whole wheat wraps with added flax seed.
4. I've taken fruity yogurt out of my diet. I eat only plain with added fruit. I even use it as a sour cream.
5. I put oat meal in a lot of things. I grind it up and put it in meat.
6. I eat a lot of veggies. I'm even going to start eating some for breakfast as weird as that sounds. They are the best thing to eat.
7. I water down my juice.
8. I eat breakfast on my kid's dishes. Smaller servings. Drink out of their cup for morning juice.
9. Do morning tasks, while snacking on my breakfast.
LOVE THE CAKE! I am new here! Hope you come visit and follow me too :)
