Have I mentioned that I am hungry all the time lately? Mom has been saying: "Ben it isn't time to eat yet. You ate 3 hours ago." I typically respond that I am STARVING, and remind her that I'm in the 20th%ile for weight and looking quite gaunt. Or that I've grown 3 inches in 3 months and I have to fill out a little or my pants will keep falling off. The guilt usually works.
This weekend she decided to teach me something about budgets. "Ben, Larry Burkett's budget suggests 14% of our income for food. We're going to have to eat less." It is probably not a good thing to remind her that she wants to lose weight, so I could eat her share.

No, Ben, that would not be a good thing to remind her.
