The score on dieting How can anyone stick to a diet in the summer with those sizzling hot dogs, hamburgers and french tries, those scrumptious sundaes and banana splits, strawberry shortcakes topped with whipped cream and those fresh rhubarb, cherry and raspberry pies? I feel my will power weakening just at the thought of all that food, and without will power the cute diet reminders, the calorie countdown and the fun quiz won't help a bit.

Nevertheless he always seems eager to dispense advice for weight reduction. Recently he remarked, "Dieting has to be a way of life." These words of wisdom were sandwiched between bites of his second piece of apple pie, and they smacked of contradiction as far as I was concerned. He's one of those people that diets regularly. When he decides he should lose a few pounds, he cuts down on his eating habits and sticks to it. Occasionally he splurges on a piece of pie; then he's satisfied. When I give in to my craving for food, the splurge usually lasts for a couple of weeks and takes in two or three pizzas, a pound of french fries, three or four but- terscotch sundaes and half a dozen chocolate bars. The other day I heard another weight pholosophy that greatly influenced my thinking: "After the age of thirty, you've always got to leave the table while you're still hungry. You can't afford to stuff yourself until you feel full. You've got to push yourself away from the food." If that's true, I'd better fill up, while I still can, New spuds now available My brother-in-law — bless his heart — always considers the welfare of his in-laws. For example, a few weeks ago a package arrived at our house. It contained a list of the benefits of weight reduction, several tips for dieting and some helpful reminders. The reminders included stickers for the cupboard and frig doors. Each label was in the shape of a road sign and carried a clever slogan, such as "Dangerous Curves Ahead," "No Loading Zone" and "No Snacking Between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m., 1 p.m. and 6 p.m, and 7 p.m, and 8 a.m." A red sign simply ordered in bold black letters "Stop!" Another helper was an at- tractive place mat marked with a calorie countdown. For each food, the number of calories was listed, and the user was requested to keep track of the total number of calories con- sumed each day. The dieter was instructed to check her weight at the beginning and the end of the month, ' In addition, the diet plan conducted a quiz. Twenty-two questions were to be answered "true" or "false". A score of twenty-two to fifteen meant the player knew what it took to lose weight. Fourteen to ten signalled the need to reaffirm her com- mitment to weight loss. Below ten warned she was in trouble. She needed help and should see her physician. My score was eighteen. Obviously I know what it takes to successfully lose weight. I proved it by losing five pounds in about five weeks during the spring. Of course, that doesn't mean the five pounds will stay off.
