These are all really good suggestions, guys. Thank you. I bet if I asked my mom she would be willing to go healthy grocery shopping with me when I come into town :) I also like the salad suggestion...I hate salads, but my mom loves them so it would be much easier to motivate myself to eat them if someone's making it for…
