I not only had pudgy cheeks, but also heavy thighs and a bottom that was out of sight. Now that I see the photographs of me side by side. I realize what a tremendous difference coming down pounds has made in my appearance. And 1 might add, it has completely changed my outlook on life. to 138 ante tagtOttIS 2 411fEng strati v2iu uttada ma Base (6'; out ,tilso ' 100 By Mavis Molina rom my own personal experience, I know there's nothing quite like being lonely, homesick and snowbound to turn a person's appetite on. In my case, I ate everything in sight and wound up weighing 204 pounds. You see, I'm English by birth, married to an American Air Force man. Happily for me, our first years together were spent "at home" near my parents. But soon after our third child was born, we were transferred to the States. We had hoped to be sent to Florida, because I love the sun and swimming so much. But instead, we ended up at an isolated base in North Dakota, and in the dead of winter. I don't think I've ever felt so lonely or unhappy in my whole life. Not that the people were unfriendly. But drifts of snow separated the 18 houses on the base and instead of ploughing out to visit neighbors, I stayed indoors fussing over the children from December until almost June. I also spent the time trying to cure my homesickness with donuts, cake, cookies and candy bars. I didn't have a scale or a full length mirror at the time. And although my jeans were getting tighter and tighter, I had no idea how big I really was until the summer thaw came. My parents had arrived for a visit about then, and one day we drove 35 miles into the nearest town for a look around. That's when I saw a F ...MN - 12 as told to Ruth L. McCarthy reflection of myself in a store window. I was so huge, I nearly died. I'll tell you, the very thought of my getting into a bathing suit made me absolutely shudder. Right then I knew that I had to take some action. So I walked into a drug store and bought a bathroom scale and a box of Ayds 4, the chocolate mint kind. You see, while I was snowbound, I'd read those stories of people who'd lost weight on the Ayds plan. And since I'd learned that Ayds Reducing Plan Candy contains vitamins and minerals, but no drugs, I wasn't afraid to start on the plan the next day. Dakota to Panama City, Florida, which gave me even more incentive to reduce. You see, I couldn't stand the idea of being a fat blob on a beach full of bikini-sliwomen. But that Ayds plan worked beautifully for me and it brought a lot of sunshine into my life. One last thing. And I say this for the benefit of people like me who overeat when they get upset. Ayds are marvelous for controlling your appetite, whether you want to lose a little weight or a lot. I know, because several months ago my husband went off on a special tour of duty and loneliness moved right in on me. I took one or two Ayds before each meal with I immediately began to overeat and put On a hot drink, coffee for me, and they really. pounds again. But this time, thank goodness, I knew helped me cut down on what I ate. For breakwhat the exactly Ayds plan could do fast, I'd have an egg and sometimes bacon which for me. In very short order, it made my bathing I'd blot with a paper to remove the grease. At suit look just great on me again. noon, I'd have Ayds and coffee and maybe a chef's salad. For dinner, I'd have my Ayds and coffee again, then eat what the rest of the BEFORE AND AFTER MEASUREMENTS family did, but much smaller portions. And in the evening, instead of a piece of cake, I'd have After Before a couple more Ayds. Soon the weight started Height 5'9" 5'9" coming off. The first two weeks on the Ayds 138 lbs. Weight 204 lbs. Bust plan, I lost nearly eight pounds. Then I tapered 3612" 42" off to two pounds a week and later one pound, Waist 2812" 34" until at the end of the year I'd lost 66 pounds. 3612" 44" Hips Dress I think I ought to mention that during the 4 90i2 time I was losing weight, we moved from North 12-1- |
