_FEBRUARY 6, 1974 TERRACE BAY NEWS PAGE I7 ADELAIDE DANIELS SAYS " Confessions of a Diet Tramp Diet Tramp, that was me, drifting from diet to diet. The sad sack of the culinary community. I was great on hand-outs. When they handed out the snacks at parties, where was my hand? In the food bowl, of course! Usually both hands. When they handed out samples in the supermarket, guess who was in the front line eating? Good old D.T. I beat track records to get to those free handouts. Mind you, as the weight piled on my agility certainly lessened, but I always had the satisfaction of cleaning out the snack bowl at a party, and I never missed the samples, Sometimes I'd stand, there so sad-eyed, the demonstrator would open another packet to get rid _ of me. Between all this snacking, I found time to diet. I told you I was a Diet Tramp, didn't 1? I tramped to the diet where you eat all that grapefruit, bacon and eggs, but in the middle of that one along came the dict where you drink lots of water for "instant thin". 1 tramped over to that one and darned near drained a lake dry. The doctor had to dry me out and he really got mad. He told me if I didn't give up all these so-called "miracle" diets it would be a miracle if my consti- tution survived. Something my doctor said made sense to me; it was the way he kept repeating the word "nutrition". Nutrition was not in my previous diets. I'd been so busy looking for every "get-thin-quick" scheme along the way that T had forgotten the body needs food as fuel for energy, not just to fill a gap. I had forgotten it needs protein, vita- mins and minerals to repair cells, build and maintain muscles, and sensible nutrition to perform at peak during a long, healthy life. I'm glad my doctor rescued me from tramping in search of the per- fect diet. The only perfect dict is sensible cating; maximum nutrition combined with minimum calories. ] I threw out my tramping shoes, and my family tell me I've never looked better. 1 love "em.

Civilization They say that civilization can bring about some pretty crazy things. That guy over there left his air conditioned office at five, drove his air conditioned car over to his air conditioned club - to take a steam bath!
