M.D - DEAR DR LAMB I'm 31 vears and weigh 128 pounds I would like to get my weight down to 120 pounds 1 work at a factory and I do a lot of w.ikmg, lifting heavy bues and pushing a broom all dav long Could you send me a pamphlet on how much 1 can eat during the working day so can keep my weight down to 120 pounds and not be so tired0 My mother weighs 146 and is She would like to get down to 140 pounds and keep that weight She doesn't work She's at home all day I'd appreciate any information vou can send old 1 - DEAR READER There is no magic amount of food you can eat to lose weight and not get tired You have on an important point, Put your finger who diet often feel tired, particularly if they overdo it and try to lose weight too fast ""If you do a lot of physical work, that may not be enough calories for you as your goal should be to lose weight slowly. Everyone should think of fat as stored energy just like the cash balance in your checking account What you eat increases your fat deposits and the work you do uses up your fat deposits. It's a straight balance situation The only way you can tell when you're working enough, or physically exercising enough, and limiting your diet sufficiently, is by what happens to your body fat stores. That's best judged by feeling how much fat is under the skin. I think it's a big mistake for anyone to try to lose much more than a pound a week on any dietary program. Any more than that will result in loss of muscles, weakness and other problems. Health's-a-Poppi- A successful dietary program to lose weight should probably not be continued for more than about six or eight weeks at a time after which a person should eat a normal maintenance diet for a few weeks to let their body adjust tor any dietary deficiencies that may have occurred then resume the diet program So, the answer to your question is to see what's happening to your body weight while you're dieting and exercising If you're losing more than about a pound a week, that s probably too much Certainly, if you re tired and weak at the same time it may be too much If you're not losing anything, and that persists over a period of several weeks with your dietary and exercise routine, then you have not restricted your diet enough or else you're not doing enough physical activity I'd like to emphasize to all my readers not to neglect the value of - K 10 9 V A WEST - - law."

CHECKBOOK By MARION WELLS Research Director, American Physical Fitness Research Institute Doctors think Beethoven probably heard it, but it wasn't music to his ears. Now there may be new help for the millions plagued with a problem "... as old as hearing itself." What is it? It's head noise, ringing in the ears, or in medical terms, tinnitus. In two studies at the Ear Research Institute in Los Angeles, patients, whose tinnitus did not improve with standard treatments, were taught to control expansion (dilation) of blood vessels through biofeedback means. They were also taught to relax the tension of the muscles around the ears through the use of relaxation exercises. Some three fourths of those taking part reported some improvement. One in ten said their head noise disappeared completely. Why can biofeedback help? Project director John House, M.D., believes it's because "... tinnitus seems to be made worse with emotional tension or any physical stress." Reducing such factors may bring a degree of relief. Other things may also help head noise sufferers. First on the list is a good medical checkup. That's because tinnitus is a symptom with many possible causes, It's produced when something irritates the hearing (auditory) nerve, whose function is to carry sound. Possible causes of such irritation vary from ear blockage due to foreign bodies, wax or swelling to problems stemming from allergy, injury, infection, circulatory disturbances or systemic dieseas. Irritation may occur in any of several places: the outer, middle or inner ear, the nerve pathways or the brain. Experts reassure us that head noise, in itself, won't make you lose either your hearing or your mind. Nor does it automatically mean you're going deaf. Tinnitus "... may or may not be associated with hearing impairment," notes the Otologic Medical Group. But at times hearing may be temporarily affected when head noise is present. Tinnitus may be constant or may come and go. It may be "... mild or severe in intensity, and vary from a low rear to a high pitched type of sound." When a careful examination uncovers the cause, treatment may bring total or partial relief. In some cases, no significant medical reason for tinnitus can be found. If yours is one, the Otologic Medical Group has some suggestions which may ease your problem. 1. Make every effort to got enough rest and not get yourself overtired. 2. Try to reduce anxiety and tension. 3. "The use of nerve stimulants is to be avoided. Therefore, excessive amounts of coffee (caffeine) and smoking (Nicotine) should be avoided." Follow your doctor s guidance. 4. Lessening head congestion may lessen tinnitus Sleeping "in an elevated position with one or two pillows" may prove helpful. 5. Head noise generally becomes more noticeable in quiet surroundings, such as when you go to bed. Other noise can help mask it and reduce annoyance. An automatic radio or loud ticking clock may help. makers" can also be purchased for this pur- sAymcs SAVINGS CHECKING SAVINGS CHECKING $$ $$ $$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$ When you want to make a deposit, deposit only to 1 your checking account. 2 SAVINGS CHECKING Walker Bank automatically and immediately transfers the money into your savings account.
