THINKING SLIM |

Don’t fool with fat

By JEAN NIDETCH

Are you really sincere
about shedding pounds and
all that it entails, or are you
merely fooling yourself?

There are many ways in
which we deceive ourselves
obout our intentions to lose
weight. One is to tell our-

. selves that changing our
eating habits is a cinch: “I
can stop overeating
whenever I want.

The problem is, the
moment to prove that
assertion never arrives. A
similar trick is the familiar
“On-Monday-I'll-Diet synd-
rome.

Both these strategies have
advantages: they allow us to

enthusiasm (come Monday
—- no more fattening
goodies!). The trouble with
these mental gymnastics is
that, while in our minds, our
weight goes down and down,
in the real world, it just
keeps on going up and up.
(You'll notice we never DID
specify WHICH Monday
we'd be going on that diet.)
Another way people
deceive themselves about
weight loss is to believe it
can be done in just a few
days, with minimal effort.
Forget these “ads that
promised you will “melt off
five pounds — overnight!”
The truth is that per-

time and effort. Chronic fad

dieting can lead to serious
nutritional deficiencies, or
worse. And weight which is
lost quickly on such diets is
nearly always regained just
as quickly.
