    I feel like a traitor

    Hi everyone! I am a translator and I have a moral dilemma...I am translating recipes from a weight loss program (which shall remain nameless) and I swear I am going to gain 10 pounds just from reading the recipes. I can't believe a weight loss plan would give recipes for sugar cookies with glazed frosting on top of that!!! HERESY I SAY!!! But I need the cash so I took the job...Oyveh...no wonder people can't lose without cutting their calories to like NOTHING!!!

            Don't even think about it Liz......not a drop of butter anywhere...just margarine (ick)...and that darn cooking spray (cancer in a bottle I says)...oh yeah, and that wonderful dessert topping that is made with God knows what...some kind of crude oil I think...THIS IS GOING TO KILL ME!!!

                  It's a job, it pays you. It's not like you're doing anything illegal. LOL
