People today are becoming increasingly aware that a proper diet is the foundation of good health. If we don’t have a regular diet of proper food, we don’t have the fuel to perform at our best. However, some people think not eating breakfast doesn’t matter a lot, though eating it is important. Get the truth behind this common misconception and other meal frequency and timing meals.

Will eating breakfast every day help me lose weight?

Yes, eating the morning meal can actually help you shed pounds. People who have breakfast are less likely to eat diet-busting(破壞的) junk food and are more likely to exercise later in the day, as studies show. People who skip breakfast, on the other hand, usually make up the calories — and then some — before day's end. Researchers found that 78 percent of the men and women included in the National Weight Control Registry — who have maintained an average weight loss of 66 pounds for more than 5 years — eat breakfast every day.

Is "grazing" really healthier than eating three square meals a day?

No. Eating many small meals throughout the day is probably not better for you than three main meals, the traditional amounts of food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The idea that "grazing" is healthier comes from a few old studies showing that eating frequent meals throughout the day may burn more fat and lower insulin （胰島素）levels. But later studies have found no benefit to grazing. It's not healthier than eating three squares, according to the American Dietetic Association.

I've always eaten most of my calories at dinner. If I'm healthy, is there any reason for us not to keep doing this?

Hard to say. Instinctively, it sounds like a bad idea. Yet "one-mealers" tend to eat less food totally, scientists say, so your dining habit may actually help you stay tidy and attractive. On the other hand, one small, brief study by USDA scientists found that eating just one daily meal may cause small increases in blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol(膽固醇). If your annual blood tests show a rise in any key risk factors for heart disease or diabetes, it is high time for you to reconsider your meal strategy.

Will bedtime snacks make you fat?

No. But that's not permission for you to eat cookies before going to bed every night. Consuming more calories than you burn through physical activity produces big loose stomachs and weak legs no matter what time you overeat. A habit of snacking in front of the television every evening will lead to weight gain, but no more so than having a six-egg pancake for breakfast or conquering a bag of beans with sweet food at your desk every afternoon.

The final word

Eat fewer calories than you need in a day and you will lose weight. Eat breakfast because it will help you control calories better, not because it's a magic meal. Eat the number of meals that keeps you satisfied and energized. No one plan is best for everyone.

Title: Stop Obsessing Over Your Meals

It used to be that shopping was a fairly simple activity---you went to the supermarket, picked up what you need, paid for it and left. But in recent years it's become a lot more complicated. Supermarkets in the UK now sell much more than food you can get your insurance there ,pay bills and a variety of other services. In many ways they've become a one-stop shop for lots of life's daily chores.

You can also get "rewards"----join up and get a "loyalty card" and every time you shop you'll get points and discounts. And just when you thought supermarkets couldn't offer anything else, they turned into mini-banks, offering you cash when you shop. Go into any UK supermarket, pay for your shopping, and you're more than likely to be asked if you want "any cashback with that?”

This is only offered if you pay by debit card（簽證卡）.Effectively ,if you buy ￡30 worth of shopping, you can pay ￡50 with your debit card and the supermarket will give you your shopping plus,￡20 in cash from the till（收款機）.

Originally introduced by the supermarket giant Tesco，it eases busy shoppers' lives by cutting out an extra visit to the bank. Of course, they didn't just introduce this for the customer's benefit---shops also benefit by having less cash in-house, and by paying less in fees for taking this cash to their local bank.

       In recent years the phrase "Cashback!" has also  been observed as an exclamation of joy or satisfaction, as in "It's three drinks for the price of two in the pub tonight. Cashback!"
