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.
