wow, time for your mom to get a hobby!!

either that, or become part of what she's doing. maybe look for really complex

recipes that are SBD friendly and challenge her to make them, and if she subs an

ingredient she fails the challenge. maybe make it a competition between the two

of you? and you can lose gracefully and make it a point of contention when you

" win " and she isn't able to cook

it's too bad you can't set " Super Size Me " on repeat when you're not around.

believe me, i know it's hard - when the rest of my group at work is ordering in

italian and i can't afford sushi and am stuck with a boring salad, i want to

cave as well. i have an added deterrent, but the things that tempt me most now

oh goodness, don't go back to your normal diet! it's time to start fighting

fire with fire. i'll look for the gourmet recipes i have stored around, the

ones i can't eat anymore, and pass them your way. then maybe you can make

amazing-smelling food that THEY can't have, because it's all for you, nanny

nanny boo boo, muahaha!
