Cellulite, for those who don‘t have it or don‘t know they have it, is the filling of fat cells that overlie the thighs, butâ€" tocks, and stomach muscles. The formaâ€" tion of cellulite is most common with women because of a "hormonal fatty apron‘"‘ called paniculus adiposis. These fat cells are like flattened balloons until filled with fluids and fat. Therefore, the only really sensible and successful way to get rid of cellulite is to lose the excess fluids your body does not need, and to trim the fat. A diet or change of foods and exercise will help you to do both. Cellulite. It‘s enough to make a grown woman despair. Enough even to make an otherwise sensible person turn to a poor nutritional or starvation diet. Consuming fewer calories alone, howevâ€" er, will not get rid of cellulite. Nor will hiding your legs all spring and sumâ€" The first thing you‘ll need to do is to consume fewer foods made with refined sugars and starches. Substitute honey for any recipe of food usually eaten with sugar. Honey is raw, natural and most importantly for someone addicted to sugars, honey is sweet. Cutting back on sugars will automatically reduce your calorie intake, reducing extra fat in the fat cells. To help get rid of extra fluids that build up, your salt intake will have to be reduced. Better yet, don‘t use it. As you are decreasing your sait intake, you should be increasing your potassium intake. Though our bodies are built to reuse sodium (salt), potassium K# 10 THE DNUWAVULLE PAM 4 mfoa iptrin‘* on #te lower GGrrurd PNTL to Te /rsforic aaor» in Panrvile , orirr/f waprzqjruclizz 4 tre1 3M Frver kd)g/' ,,;2 pe awliwrtl Cz s&pfe»» /s vV/Grvw _ ids be cam» as 7 wxeonved Corca /I4/2 . Fitness Forum Kathy Hammond Fitness Instructor gets flushed through our bodies quickly. If your potassium level is low, and your salt intake high, the imbalance will mean excess fluids held in the fatty cells. Menstruating women lose potassiâ€" um at high levels resulting in tiredeness, weakness, constipation, and nervous symptoms. Rather than take a potassium suppleâ€" ment, which can irratate the lining of the stomach and gut, foods which are high in potassium should be consumed (particularily during menstruation). Fish, fowl, fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and nuts, are good sources of potassium. Wheat germ and bran are exceptionally high in potassium and can be eaten alone or in soups, stews, on top of cereals, or in a glass of juice. Another method of getting rid ~of excess fluids is a high intake of vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 is destroyed in most of our foods by the time it reaches our tables. It can be taken daily as a meal supplement without danger of taking too much. Any vitamin B6 that is not needed will naturally be excreted. Pay particuâ€" lar attention to taking B6 during menâ€" struation, when the«female hormone estrogen, and the birth control pill actually destroy vitamin B6 when needâ€" ed the most. Exercise plays an important role along with your food changes. All you have to do is look at the legs of a woman who either jogs, skips, walks, or dances, to see that leg work, and lots of it, will help turn the fatty buildâ€"up to muscle. nd A, Fine treatment for local Bell interests As a taxpayer of the City of Waterloo I would like to comment on the article in last week‘s issue concerning the acquisition of a new telephone system for the city. You made reference to three companies who bid on the new system, and mentioned only two by name, Telecommunications Terminal Systems (TTS), a Toronto based company who was awarded the contract and Musitronâ€"Danning, a local firm. The company you neglected to mention happens to be Bell Canada. Bell‘s recomâ€" mendation was for the identical system as that offered by TTS, and the price was approximately the same as attested to by the consultant and City Council. At the meeting Bell provided graphic evidence that it possesses a much superior all inclusive servicing capability than that offered by Toronto based TTS, who do not service their own equipment, but sub lease the mraintenance to a third party comâ€" pany. _ _ e _ LETTERS, TTS does not have a single employee based locally. Bell has several hundred living in the Regxn many of whom reside in the City of Waterloo, and are deeply committed to most civic endeavors. Inâ€" deed these employes rely on contracts such as this one for their livelihood. These people must wonder, and rightfully so, what the word loyalty means to Mayor Just about three years ago, Waterioo Chronicle produced a souvenir edition commemorating the 125th anniversary of the city of Waterloo. N edition â€" in another 125 years. â€" 1 mean, you can get too much of a good The date was May 26, 1982, and if I recall, the joke going around at the time was that we‘d all be happy to come on board to produce another such epic But now, three years later, another epic is about to hit the streets â€" next week in fact. A few things have stayed the same, a few more have changed. First, the title. Our 88â€"page extravaâ€" ganza, to be delivered in Waterloo by the Chronicle and in Kitchener by the Kâ€"W Record, is not a historical edition, it is a stateâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"nation business analysis enâ€" titled Progress ‘85, A Business Profile of Kitchenerâ€"Waterloo. And it is not 80 pages, as our epic was three years ago, but 88. Bigger. And we hope you‘ll find, even better. And the reason for that is that Progress ‘85 evolves from the stuff that would make any company proud, the coâ€"operative efforts of sister publicaâ€" tions and support staff under the Fairâ€" way Press banner. â€" And when we say that Progress ‘85 is a joint venture, we mean joint venture. From the initial mapping of advertising and editorial strategy, to the establishâ€" ing of combined staffs, to the division of workload leading up to the creation of the final product, Progress ‘85 has been one coâ€"operative venture. Progress is a joint venture, in fact, of the Chronicle, and Fairway‘s spiffy business magazine Exchange, which thanks to much hard work on the part of its principles, has from its inception captured the imagination of the Kâ€"W area business community. To say nothing of adventure‘ The selling of an untried product to local advertisers. The coâ€"ordination of adverâ€" tising with editorial, advertising with creative, editorial with creative. The choosing of candidates for exciting people profiles. Reassuring skeptical companies of the edition‘s intent. The kid glove handling (ha, ha) of comp room and press room staff to ensure things get done "exactly as we want them." And the meeting of deadlines, deadlines, deadlines‘ Wow! Adventure‘ Can we talk? But here we are, a week before unveiling, and all systems are go. WATERLOO CHRONICLE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 1985 â€" PAGE 7 Coâ€"operation Rick Campbell Chronicle Editor It‘s a good product, one that we‘re all proud of at Exchange and the Chronicle, and a solid foundation for a new tradition, the annual publication of a community business profile. Hey, not everything came up roses, there were times when a few folks would have liked nothing better than to bite the heads off a few others. Stories got a bit late, pics got mislaid, ad shots had to be retaken, structure changes took place, more than once a few of us took the bus back to the drawing board. But hey, isn‘t that what it is all about? Through it all, we kept our wits about us, and chuckled through clenched teeth that three weeks from now we‘ll all look back and have a big laugh. But most of all, each and every ome of us looked after our own little corner. Nothing to the doing, but the doing. And that‘s where the success of Progress ‘85 lies â€" with the pride the architects (one and all) took in building this product. The cast is endless, but how can you go wrong with former Chronicle (and 125th) editor Karla Wheeler, now Exchange editor, providâ€" ing the guiding inspiration. Or with wellâ€"known local writer (and another former Chronicle editor) Terry James coâ€"ordinating the editorial ship. And with Lois McKinnon and Bill Karges, driving forces behind the advertising excellence of our 125th, again on the team to set the Progress ‘85 gears in motion. The Chronicle and Exchange talented pool of writers, advertising and creative folks, doing a job like only they know how. And finally, the unsung troopers in Fairway production, behind the scenes, often for long, overtime hours, bringing our efforts to the final stages. Heroes, they, in our hearts. What‘s the definition of business hours? I am writing to ask why the federal MP‘s office is open during business hours and the provincial MPP‘s office is not. . _ Carroll and every member of council, all of whom voted against them in favour of providing the work to a company whose employees are all based in Toronto. Also not mentioned was the fact that TTS doesn‘t have a single building locally and doesn‘t pay one dollar in local taxes. It was never brought out during the election campaign that Herb Epp‘s office at the Erb St. Plaza is not always open to the general public during business hours, although the office door states the hours that business is to be transacted. I have been told you are supposed to phone ahead. But if a matter comes up ‘"overnight‘"‘ that needs an answer, you cannot always phone ahead. As members of this riding, we have a right to expect Herb Epp as our elected MPP to have his office properly staffed and open during business hours. And you know what the best feeling is of all about Progress ‘85, at least in this corner? That it represents a true spirit of coâ€"operation between sister, but separate publications. That we took an entirely new product, mixed and matched our combined magazine/newsâ€" paper resources and philosophies, and in the end produced an edition we hope you‘ll be proud of. Here at the Chronicle and Exchange we gave it our best shot, every last one of us. Be looking for us next week, waving from under one flag, handâ€"inâ€" hand. As Progress °85. You won‘t want to miss it. We‘re glad we didn‘t. Waterioo, Ont. Gary Gowland Waterioo, Ont.
