Emily, do you really want to eat in this hole in the wall?Larry: Now, Vicky, Emily is trying to help us get back into shape. Besides, this place doesnt look so bad. Its a little dark maybe, but Im sure its clean.Emily: Thats the spirit. Lets take that table over there.Vicky: I suppose theres no smoking allowed in here.Emily: Of course not, big sister. This is a health food restaurant. Besides, I thought you said you were going to kick the habit.Vicky: Well, Emily, Ive tried. But, every time I stop smoking, I gain ten pounds. I dont think Ill ever be able to give up smoking.Emily: But youll feel so much better when you do! Ive been eating well and exercising every day. I run two miles every other day and play tennis every Sunday. I feel wonderful and everybody tells me I look great.Larry: Yeah, Vicky, I think Emily is right. By the way, wheres the waiter? Id like to order a drink before we eat.Emily: Larry, its only three oclock in the afternoon. Besides, health food restaurants dont serve alcohol.Vicky: Wait a minute, Larry. I thought we agreed that youd stop drinking if I quit smoking.Emily: I think you should both quit. Doesnt this restaurant make you want to start living a healthy life? Why, just look at this menu. Everything they serve here is natural and nutritious.Larry: Never mind nutritious. What are the burgers like? Im starving.Emily: Oh, Larry. You must know that hamburgers have a lot of fat and are high in calories.Vicky: And the doctor told you that you have to lower your cholesterol and lose at least 25 pounds. Smoking isnt the only way to have a heart attack early in life, you know. I m your wife and Im too young to dress all in black.Larry: Dont worry, dear, Im not going to die any time soon. Besides, Im going to start my new diet on Monday.Emily: Thats great. Larry, but I think the only real way to lose weight is to eat less and exercise more.Vicky: I agree with Emily. All you have to do is stop eating desserts and fried foods and no more alcohol.Larry: You know, maybe youre right. Emily can help me plan a diet.Emily: And dont forget the exercise. Why dont you two come running with me. Id love to have the company and we could play tennis together, too.Vicky: No, running hurts my knees. I think swimming would be the best exercise for me.Larry: Well, I dont like swimming or running. But, I would like to get back into playing handball. I was a really good player when I was younger.Emily: Well, the important thing is that you two make some serious changes in your lifestyle. Im really glad youre doing this. Now, lets celebrate your decision by ordering a nice tall glass of carrot-onion juice.Vicky and Larry: Carrot-onion juice?Emily: Of course. Its chock-full of vim and vitality! Its rich in vitamins and minerals. Theres vitamin C, B, and of course A for the eyes.Larry: Wait a minute. Our diet doesnt start until Monday. If were going to do any celebrating, I say we should go over to the Burger Palace and have a real celebration.Emily: ButVicky: Im with you, Larry. Come on, Im starving. See you later, Emily.Part ThreeExercise 11.Whats the shortest height and lowest weight for men on this chart?2.What is the heaviest weight for women on this chart?3.How much should a 54 woman weigh?4.How much should a 511 man weigh?5.Who should weigh more: a small-boned 55” man, or a small-boned 57 woman?6.Who should weigh more: a small-boned 511 man, or a large-boned 511 woman?Exercise 1D1.Im small-boned like all of the women in my family.
