We eat until our c othes don’t fit, then we face a dif ficult choice. We can buy all new Clothes, or we can stay home. Here is another way to solve the problem. It may take a little ®nger, but the results will be much '‘lore satisfactory. Most of us can’t keep track of calories, but we can post a small list on our refrigerator and pantry at home. If we avoid just five high calorie foods, or add five low calorie foods to our regular eating habits, we are on the way to fitting into our clothes again. Over 500 calories Hamburger with cheese (7 ounces) Pie (large slice) 8 ounces Peanuts (3 ounces) Potato chips, corn chips, tortilla chips (3 ounces) Chocolate malt (small serving) 10 ounces Under 100 calories Seedless grapes Honeydew melon (one-half) Potato (medium) Family Drug Center 402W. Haggard Elon College, NC 27244 584-4257 (Located Behind Pizza Hut) Shrimp (6 large boiled) Vegetable juice (1 cup) Under 10 calories Cucumber (12 slices) Tea (1 cup) Lettuce (I/8th of large head) Celery (3 small inner stalks) Radishes (5 medium) That s the outline, now what do you do with it? Here are three choices. If you really don t want to change what you eat at all, or the choices of- offered her don’t look very appetiz ing, take the easy course. If you are ready to take some ac tion to improve your diet and your shape, take the action route. If you decide what you want and will stick to a plan to get it, pick the results approach. Easy: Don’t change your diet at all. Just keep the list of foods with you and make a check mark every time you eat one of them during a week. Put the list on your refrigerator at the end of the week and start a new list. That’s, it. Don’t expect miracles, but do ex pect an easy life. Action: Do what is easy, but each week try to avoid one of the 5(X)-calorie foods you ate during the previous week. Try to add one of the 10-calorie foods and one of the 100-calorie foods you didn’t. Weigh yourself at the end of each week, just to see how you are do ing. Expect some ups and downs. Results: Begin immediately. Write your goal for weight and put it on eveiy mirror in the house - and on every place where you can find food in the house. If you eat any of the foods that are on the 500-calories list, write a note and place it next to each of the weight- goal notes. Each week add at least one food from the 10-calorie list until you eat one or more of these foods everyday. When you have reached your weight goal and shape goal, each week take one of your weight-goal notes and put it away for safe-keeping. That s it. Good luck.
