McCarthy When I got one look at this picture, I refused to order more. Who needed to see 170 pounds twice! Goons crazy? Not when youve got ‘a weight problem. You just don't want fo go near anything that tells ‘you that you're fat—whether it's your brother, a swim suit, a mirror or a scale. And at 170 pounds, believe me, Iwas fat Ttseems now like Iwasalwaysheavy. {just never stopped stuffing my face. Chocolate bars, ice cream, potato chips, bagels and cream cheese, cook- Fes, cocoa. You could see how it showed ‘on'me, too. Like the day I went to Coney Island in a pair of slacks that ‘wouldn't button, I had fastened them together with a chain of safety pins and covered the open V with a blouse and coat. Then I had to go and ride a ‘motor scooter. And guess what? A pin popped. Before I knew it, went bang- ing into others as the rink men shouted: “Turn the wheel. The wheel!” Td like to see them take directions ‘with a pin sticking in their stomach, "The beach was another nightmare! {L used to look for the spot where all the old ladies sat, because I dreaded that moment when you take off your top clothes and everybody watches. Only time I suffered more was when ‘had to shop for clothes for an affair. T'd stand in front of a mirror in a size 18 dress and my mother would say: “With a long-line bra and a girdle and make-up, you'll look okay. And maybe by then, you'll losea few pounds.” But no matler what I did, I always ended up the fattest cousin there, Boys were something else. Only for- eign ones would give me a look. They seemed to like apple-round faces. didn't. ‘So periodically I'd go on a wild dict. Once even I took rainbow pills. One color at breakfast, another color at lunch, another at dinner.

And since T alwa ‘craved chocolate, T said: “Why not?” (Actually I hada choice of four fla- vors.) Anyway, I read the directions carefully and the Ayds Plan really sounded safe. No harmful drugs, I earned. So I started and it helped me have willpower like I never had before. ‘Tut out all the garbage I was eating ‘and began with healthful foods. And thy taking one or two Ayds like the directions say, I actually was able to limit myself to a much lower calorie intake, With no feeling of deprivation, either, because I had my chocolate, ‘After a bit, I wasn’t afraid to get on the scale, since it kept going down. And down. Also, Istarted doing things: ‘Singing lessons, drama classes, night courses at college, even dating. ‘There ‘was no more time for guzzling. Anyway, by summer I had reached 114 pounds. I was bikini size at last. So T bought my first. I was almost seared to wear it, though, because T really hadn't been slim Iong enough to stop thinking like a fat person. But my fiancé reassured me, That's right. ‘My fiancé. I’m engaged, eestatically! T, who never thought anyone would love me except Herschel. I didn't tell ‘you about him, did I?
