CHANGING HABITS

Today I want to tell you about my eating habits. Last time I went to the doctor, he
told me I was overweight, so I decided to change drastically. In the past I ordered
deliveries , so I could eat at home and I ate a lot of fried

foods, I never practiced any sports and I felt tired all the time. Now,

everything is different. I buy vegetables like cucumber and

lettuce and I cook at home. I bake healthy vegetable

pies and I don’t eat desserts because sweets have a lot of empty

calories. The best part of cooking is that I also save money because eating

always at restaurants can be very expensive. Of course I still go to restaurants

sometimes, but if I go to a restaurant I ask for a healthy meal

without any fat or sugar. I am also being more active, I go swimming to

the local pool three times a week, and on weekends I play tennis

with my mom, she is very good at it and she has very nice rackets. I must say,
with this new lifestyle I feel and look great!

Read the message and decide if the sentences below are true (T) or false (F).

Lea el mensaje y decida si las frases son verdaderas (T) o falsas (F).

Dear Elena,

Thank you for the e-mail you sent me last week. I'm very happy to hear that you
and Francesco are well and that your exam results were so good. Well done! I
know you studied hard and you deserve your success.

My exams are next week so at the moment I'm studying a lot. I'm really nervous
about them because, if you remember, I was sick for a couple of months at the
end of the year and so I missed a lot of lessons. When the exams are finished I
would like to come and visit you for a few days, if that's OK with your mom and
dad.

Do you remember I told you about my friend Amanda from Scotland? She's going
to come here next month and is going to stay for two weeks. I'd like you to come
too so you can meet her and we can all go out together. What do you think? We
can practice our English!

I remember last year we had such a good time. The beaches near your house are
wonderful and I really enjoyed meeting your friends (especially Roberto! Is he still
single?) I can't remember the name of the disco next to the train station but I'd like
to go there again - it was fun.

Oh, guess what! Jason broke his arm last weekend! He went to the skateboard
park with his friends from school and fell down some steps (he doesn't know how
to skateboard!) He's got a plaster cast and he's going to have it for at least six
weeks. He's such an idiot!

My mom's calling me for lunch, she gets angry when I don’t go fast, so I'll finish
this letter now. Say hello to your family and don't forget to congratulate Francesco
for me.

Hugs from Italy.

Milena

PS: Say Hi to Roberto too!
