It is time for a Key Word...
Story.
Yes, a Key Word...
Story.
Now this is the part of our show where we put all of today's key words into...
A story.
That's right.
Let's call today's story A Dog's Diet.
Hazel's dog is overweight.
Ooh. He eats so much but is never satisfied.
So Hazel decides to divide her dog's food into smaller portions.
Her dog also needs daily exercise.
Yeah.
Well, she wants her dog to be healthy.
She even thinks of feeding her dog tofu.
Tofu?
Can dogs eat tofu, Andrea?
Um, well, I don't know.
But that is the end of our Key Word Story.
Well, that was a great story!
Friends, I'm sure you can think of an even better one.
Right now it's time for us to review our lesson.
(Music).
Hello, friends.
Welcome to Let's Talk.
Are you good at managing your weight?
Well, our guest for today is here to tell us all about that.
Let's welcome him.
Welcome, Dr. Health.
Today we're talking about diets for overweight people.
What can you tell us?
First, drink lots of water.
Sometimes people think they are hungry when they are really thirsty.
So reach for a glass of water before you reach for a snack.
Right.
Also, eat protein like meat, eggs or tofu at every meal.
Protein helps you feel full longer.
That's good to know.
You should also eat meals often.
People who eat four or five times a day manage their weight better.
So divide your daily calories between four or five small meals.
Right.
And dinner should be the last time you eat.
But I like a bedtime snack.
Then eat one that's 100 calories or less.
And eat it slowly.
Then you will feel more satisfied.
If you are overweight, what can you do?
First, when you feel hungry, you may be thirsty.
Reach for a glass of water before you reach for a snack.
Second, eat four or five small meals a day.
Divide your daily calories between them.
Eat protein like meat, eggs, or tofu at each meal.
If you must have a bedtime snack, eat a small one.
And eat it slowly so you will feel more satisfied.
Hello. (Chinese).
I made you something delicious for breakfast, Fred.
Sorry, honey, no time.
I need to go to work.
Oh, and I won't be back until ten tonight.
You always work too much.
Beatris, don't you want to be happy?
People who make more money are happier.
What was that?
That was the sound of an angry Super Sentence Man.
You, Fred, used today's super sentence, but I didn't like it.
The super sentence is...
People who something something and something.
Now you said people who make more money are happier.
Yes, I did.
Well, I don't agree.
But I want to hear you use today's super sentence in another way.
People who exercise feel better.
People who exercise feel better.
Well, I do agree with that one.
Now what about you?
Do you have a super sentence for me?
People who think about good things do a better job at work.
People who think about good things do a better job at work.
Super!
Now what sentence do you need to say, Fred?
People who make more money are happier.
Now that was a super sentence, but a stupid idea.
I don't make much money, but my family is very happy.
Well, I will think about what you said.
Yes. Do think about it.
And remember, a super sentence every day will make your English great.
OK. Now I really do have to go.
Well, Fred, I will walk with you to your car.
OK.
Oh, Fred.
(Music).
Calendar Phrase.
Reach for a glass of water.

(Chinese).
I'm really thirsty.
Reach for a glass of water.
Maybe I'll drink a soda.
Reach for a glass of water.
Maybe I'll drink a cup of coffee.
Reach for a glass of water.
All right.
Please pass the water.
Sorry. You have to reach for it.
Reach for a glass of water.

(Chinese).
Let's answer it!
Here is question number one.
Why should people drink lots of water?
Why should people drink lots of water?
Gabe?
Yeah, I know the answer.
I know it.
OK.
You do?
The answer was in Conversation A.
Yes, the answer is...
Because people sometimes think they're hungry when they're really thirsty.
Did you get that?
Sometimes we think we're hungry, but really we are just thirsty.
Well, here is question number two.
How many meals and snacks do you eat a day?
Why?
Andrea, how many meals and snacks do you eat a day and why?
Well, I eat three meals a day.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
And I guess I also eat three snacks a day.
I usually eat a snack between breakfast and lunch, then one between lunch and
dinner.
And I like to have a small snack before going to bed.
Wow, that sounds great.
Well, friends, what about you?
How will you answer this question?
We will see you next time right here on Let's Talk in English.
Goodbye.
Bye-bye.
Make sure you have a snack.
