Get hungry — проголодаться
Receive guests – принимать гостей
Motto – девиз
Hello. My name is Eddy. I think I hold healthy life. Let me tell you something about it. I don’t get up very early but I usually start my day with exercises. I go out and run about my house twenty times. Then I get hungry and have breakfast. I have a big glass of orange juice and some porridge. At about one I have my lunch. At lunch I eat a lot of vegetables: cabbage, carrots, peas, fresh cucumbers, a piece of bread and a cup of tea without sugar, of course. Sometimes I don’t have any lunch, but it is not healthy at all. It happens when I’m busy in the city. I don’t like to eat out. I sometimes have dinner in the evening when I’m hungry or when I have guests at home. I don’t like to receive guests because we usually eat a lot of meat and fish and other tasty but unhealthy things which don’t help you to be fit. My motto is: “A healthy mind in a healthy body”.
