Tips for Healthy Eating

• Don't skip meals - plan meals and snacks ahead of time.

Believe it or not, eating 3 meals with snacks in between is the best way to maintain your energy and a healthy weight.

Eat breakfast. 20% of teens skip breakfast, which makes them more likely to over-eat later in the day.

• Try simple, healthy ways to prepare foods.

Try healthier ways to cook foods such as grilling, stir-frying, microwaving, baking, and boiling instead of deep frying.

• Sugar and solid fat - avoid getting too much.

Sugary drinks and foods with solid fats such as butter, cream, hydrogenated oils are a big source of empty energy. This means that they contain a lot of energy (in the form of calories) that your body may not need, and they don't contain a lot of nutrients (vitamins, minerals, protein, or even fiber).

• Avoid «diet thinking».

There are no good foods or bad foods. All foods can be part of healthy eating, when eaten in moderation. You do not need to buy low carb, fat-free, or diet foods. These foods are not necessarily lower in calories—they usually have lots of other added ingredients to replace the carbs or fat.

A: Do you want to order an appetizer first?

A: I’d better take tomato soup. By the way, they have a wide choice of fish and meat courses.

B: I won’t have any fish course. I’ll just try the roast beef.

Waiter: Good evening. Two for dinner?

Nick: Could we have a table near the window, please?

Waiter: Come with me, please (leading the guests to a table for two).

Lucy: Does it come with the dinner?

Nick: No, it's a la carte.

Lucy: Let's see... the dinner includes salad, an entree, vegetables and potatoes as side dishes, a dessert, and coffee. That's more than enough.

Nick: Okay. We'll order a dinner without an appetizer. What about the entree? What would you like - veal, roastbeef, steak or chicken?

Nick: So would I.

Waiter: Are you ready to order now?

Nick: Yes. Can we start with the salad?

Waiter: Certainly, sir. What kind of dressing would you like?

Nick: Just olive oil and vinegar for both of us.

Waiter: And for your entree?

Nick: Two steaks, please.

Waiter: Rare, medium, or well done?

Nick: Medium, please.

Lucy: Is there a choice of vegetables and potatoes?

Waiter: No, ma'm, I'm sorry. We serve a daily special. Today we have mashed potatoes. The vegetable of this day is asparagus.

Nick: It's all right with me. What about you?

Lucy: It's okay.

Waiter: Would you like to see the wine list?

Nick: We'd like a carafe of Chablis.

Nick: Can we order it later?

Waiter: Of course.
