Omitting the cheese from the hamburger would decrease intake of saturated fat and calories;replacing the soda with skim milk would replace the calcium without added fat and sodium.Removing the bun would decrease calories but would not decrease the fat content;drinking juice would provide some nutrients but also an amount of sugar similar to that of regular soda.Ketchup and mustard add sodium and a relatively small number of calories,but their impact is less significant than the cheese;fast-food cappuccino is high in sugar and fat.Missing meals does not usually help improve overall dietary intake;regular intake of nutrients throughout the day helps body metabolism function well.
