Yes there is still sugar in Angel Food Cake. Go to "eggface's site" and look for an alternative if you need to have cake. There are alot of sugar free desserts out there.
Do something else that will be special.....you need to not focus your life around food anymore. Birthdays don't need to be about the cake.
This is just my opinion....please don't flame me!

Please pay close attention to the plan your doctor set out for you!
It's for your health that the doctor/clinics give specific instructions to their patients.
I would really listen to what Connie just said!
You get a taste of those carbs and the battle will be back on!
(I speak from experience on that one!)
Here come the healthy choices! There is always going to be some food around that you shouldn't have -- it is up to YOU to make the healthy choice. Think about other situations you are going to have to face......Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are all coming up -- and they come EVERY YEAR!!!! When you go out to dinner, there are lots of things on the menu -- but YOU do the ordering.
NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS "HEALTHY" FEELS!!!!! No regrets, no weight gain, no dumping, LOTS of pride in being able to make and stick to making the healthy choice.......
You are doing great -- instead of focusing your birthday on the cake -- focus on a treat for yourself that doesn't involve food -- pedicure, manicure, hair coloring with a cute cut???? Fun things to do instead of things to eat......Ask for gift cards to places to buy new clothes (or get the stuff for the pedicure, manicure, etc.), and order an edible bouquet to replace your cake -- full of fruit!!! Ask the person who orders the cake to be WLS friendly -- after all it is YOUR birthday!!!
