Did you ever notice that when you’re fat, men don’t look you in the eye? They look across your shoulder. There’s no eye contact.

       My name is Leslie. I am a real person. Up until two years ago, I was never looked in the eye, by anyone.

       I was too tired to be a lover to my husband. I was falling asleep by 8 o’clock most evenings. When I did go out for an evening, my husband was ashamed of me. And he said so to my face. When I walked, my thighs scrape together. I couldn’t even cross my legs. I was fat. Not just “overweight” Fat. I was 5’55” tall and weighed 205 pounds.

       About 18 months ago, my husband Darrell left a “Dear Leslie” letter on my bed and asked for divorce.

       I went to a psychologist for advice. I knew that my weight was the source of my troubles. But I’d tried 14 different diets, at which I failed one by one.

       He listened carefully and recommended an entirely different program. This was not a “diet.” It was a unique new weight-loss program researched by a team of specialists who help to treat the severely fat. I entered the program. Within the first four days, I lost only three pounds. So I was disappointed. But during the three weeks that followed, my weight began to drop from 205 pounds to 124 pounds. To me it was a miracle.

       The reason the program worked was simple. I was always eating. I could eat six times every day. I could snack in the afternoon. Snack before dinner. I could even have snack at night while watching TV.

       How can you eat so much and still lose weight?

       The secret is in the combination of foods, approved by the research team, which you eat in each 24 hours period. You will enjoy a variety of meats, chicken, fish, vegetables, potatoes, sauces. Even some light wine or beer if you wish. But be sure to have them in the right proportion(比例)…thus a complete 24-hour fat-reduction cycle is formed.

Without hunger, without nervousness, it lets you lose pounds so easily. Once you lose the weight, you’ll keep it off. Forever, I am sure of that.

阅读下面的短文,请根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)

       There’s a lot of discussion these days about fit kids, Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical activity (exercise), and has a healthy weight. If you’re fit, your body works well, feels good, and can do all the things you want to do.

Here are four rules to live by, if you’re a kid who wants to be fit.

       1. Eat a variety of foods, especially fruits and vegetables.

       You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety. If you eat different foods, you’re more likely to get the nutrients your body needs. Taste new foods and old ones you haven’t tried for a while.

       2. Drink water and milk most often.

       When you’re really thirsty, cold water is the No. 1 thirst-quencher. And there’s a reason your school cafeteria offers cartons of milk. Kids need calcium to grow strong bones, and milk is a great source of this mineral.

       3. Listen to your body.

       What does it feel like to be full? When you’re eating, notice how your body feels and when your stomach feels comfortably full. Sometimes, people eat too much because they don’t notice when they need to stop eating. Eating too much can make you feel uncomfortable, and over a period of time, it can lead to ___________________.

       4. Be active.

       One job you have as a kid-and it’s a fun one-is that you get to figure out which activities you like best. Not everyone loves baseball or soccer. Maybe your passion is karate, or kickball, or dancing. Ask your parents to help you do your favorite activities regularly. Find ways to be active every day.
