A little bit. I like going Fridays without meat, and all of lent without it. My mom is the skinniest and most religious person I know so I take after her a little.

>mother grew up in poverty
>i was raised listening to stories about how bad times got
>a communion wafer from church would be all she ate sometimes, so she went every day
>she had 6 other siblings
>they bullied her and would give her food to the stray animals
>at one point she cleaned for an old woman who was nice and cooked for her
>when this lady passed away my mom was let go
>mom still brings up how her meals were the best she ever had
>rarely had food but always had god
>she would joke that she was only alive because she was feeding her soul
>now she's living in the U.S. where food is abundant
>never speaks an ill word about anybody overweight
>still as thin as she was in her 20's
>when i ask her for dieting advice she just says don't eat anything, as a joke, then laughs
>then she tells me i better not starve myself and to go eat something
