I did not give our thin friends a sample menu for fear it would upset them; but nothing can upset your digestion, I know. However, I will not give you a sample menu, either, but will tell you what I eat when I go on a reduction regime, which for me is 1200 Calories. You will notice, most of my calories I have at dinner in the evening. You may not like this, but would rather have yours spread over the entire day; and you can suit your fancy, for it makes no difference as long as your total number per day stays within your reduction limit. [Sidenote: _Make Out Several Menus if You Like_] Don't think you have to follow my menu. You might gain on it! Study the Key and select your own. Many will lose by going on the no-breakfast plan, or the no-lunch plan. If they do reduce, it is because they have lowered their daily consumption of food, and not because of the no-breakfast or no-lunch plan _per se._ Fat seems to melt faster when the chief meal is in the middle of the day, and with only 200 or 300 calories of fruit for the evening meal. In this way you slim while you sleep. MY BREAKFAST 1 slice very dry coarse bread toast 1/4 in. thick 50 C. Butter, 1/4 cu. in 25 C. Hot water flavored with coffee 00 C. ----- Total 75 C. [Sidenote: _Slim While You Sleep! Clever?_] You may prefer many more calories for breakfast, or none at all. This may not look good to you, but it means an awful lot in my young life, after my exercise and bath, to sit down to my little breakfast and read the papers. Recently I have found that two cups of moderately hot water with the juice of a lemon answers just as well as the toast and watery coffee, and is probably better. You might like some fruit. MY LUNCHEON 1 corn muffin--I am patriotic 125 C. 1 pat butter 100 C. 1 cup coffee with 1 tbsp. cream 50 C. ------ Total 275 C. If you are patriotic and constipated, substitute one bran muffin. You can see that this is in reality a further extension of my sumptuous breakfast. If I get tired of this, I add a salad of Lettuce, large amount, practically 00 C. Roquefort cheese dressing 100 C. I am very fond of this Roquefort cheese dressing; 1-1/8in. cube of cheese in a little vinegar, no oil, keeps it within the hundred calories. You might prefer a baked apple or two tomatoes, or a dish of prunes, or 3 oz. of cottage cheese. The chief thing is to take what you like, not what I like. Count your calories.
