We're told ? well-built house that's prop??y maintained, could be good for ?t least 100 years. But before buyng a used bo"* vou might want someone to help you evaluate the foundation and the frame. , . " Keep in mind that you re going to have to put some money into refurbishing your house. At the very least you 11 have to modernize the kitchen, the plumbing, pro bably the wiring. The older house may not be well insulated and with today's em phasis on energy conservation, you may have to put in a new heating system. . J These changes cost money. Ana there's a rule of thumb that says the cost of an old house should not exceed two-thirds the cost of a new house. WEIGHT CONTROL GROUPS Weight control groups are very popular right now. And there s a variety of them. Some are organ ized for purely altruistic reasons, such as motivation and inspiration. ^ They are non-profit org?n?ations and include groups as TOPS and Overeaters Anonymous. Other groups, such as weignt Watchers and the Diet Workshop, are more commercial. Each of these groups offer a great deal of self help. Although different techniques are used, most groups emphasize that weight loss and control is something a person must do for himself; 4 In some groups it's the spirit ot competition; it's the evangelistic approach; and in still others a behavior modification approach that keeps people on their diets. Obviously, groups aren t for everyone, so before joining or investing any sizable sum of money, attend a meeting or two to make sure the group is for you. Since dieting and exercise can become boring for most people, ? commercial groups regularly make changes in their diet plans. Cur rently Weight Watchers is advertis ing its liberalized plan which permits such foods as peanut butter and wine. In 1980. Consumers Magazine evaluated several weight control programs. They found TOPS to be basic and homey; Overeaters Anonymous heavy on group therapy; Trins. good for the and Diet Workshop and Weight Watchers, the most complete and best organized. All weight control groups have success stories to tell; lhey Mohave failures. So if you re iomina a group, shop around first, then stick with the one you join.
