LATEST THING IN HATS, modelled by Jane Burke-Robertson, fs made out of her
own hair by an Ottawa hair stylist. The process took four hours to create and one
might call this hat ... a hair-raising experience. (UPC wirephoto)

Thinking Slim

BY JEAN NIDETCH

I have a friend who, at the
end of each day, empties his
wallet of loose change and
spare dollar bills, and puts it
all in a drésser drawer. It
may seem like small change,
but when vacation time rolls
around, George has about
$200 extra to make his trip
really special.

I have another fnend who
empties not her wallet, but
dinner plates. As Betty says,
‘I hate to waste good food.’
She claims, ‘it’s not much,
just the last few bites of the
kids’s mashed potatoes, or
the last little slice of meat.’

But at every meal, those
‘little things’ do add up — in
Betty's case. to 32° extra
pounds.

Why does the ‘one ttle
piece’ syndrome — strike?
Often. like Betty, we don't
want to throw away perfectly
good food Or, we may have
been so pood about

following our diet plan that
we ourselves = into
thinking one small cupcake
as a ‘reward’ for our efforts
couldn't hurt) Or, it may be

fool

during dinner at a friend's
house, ‘It's my _ specialty,’
says the hostess. ‘Seven-
layer- cake. Try a little piece
and tell me what you think.’
Whatever the situation,
the outcome is the same: it
all adds up, sometimes with
interest. For, when we give

-in the first time, we find it

easier to give in the second

time, and the third ...Why
not ‘give in to’ these
suggestions instead:

1) Put less food on your

family’s plates. It’s better to
have them ask for seconds

than leave food uneaten. If.

there are leftovers, let
someone else clean the
plates. or refrigerate the

extra Lood.

2) Be polite but firm in
refusing a friends’s goodies.
Start your response with ‘No,
thank you. Acknowledge
her efforts — and emphasize
yours: ‘I'm sure it’s delicious,
but reaching my goal is
important to me.’ Finish with
a compliment: ‘The broiled

fish with herbs, however.

3) Recognize that extra
food is just that — extra. If
you are following a diet plan
and exercise portion control,
adding a few more bites is
counterproductive, Try this
substitution: For each extra
bite you resist, put a quarter
or 50 cents or whatever into
a kitty. You'll be happy to
see the cash, not the weight,
accummulate. You may
even save enough to buy

- yourself a new outfit in a
smaller size!

YOU

Let color

talk for you

By RENE VINCENT

We can look to the women
of the 80s to reach a stan-
dard of idealism that we
have not seen before. She
has a sense of pride and a
degree of elegance in
everything she does.

The 80s will be a decade of
‘Serious Cosmetics’
products that not only
enhance the natural beauty
of a woman but also work
wonders for her skin.

We are entering a
spectacular sun season, a
time to ‘dream aloud in
colors’ — bright, energetic,
candied pastels colors
with a punch.

Action is in colors. Use it
on your hair, in your make-
up. Use color on color or
next to color.

Two tones in your hair will
give it more of that healthy
summer look and
brighten the motion of your
hair in the sun.

Your eyes are the most
expressive part of your face

and they have a language of:

their own. With colors, you
will make them speak louder
than your words and actions.

Even if you enjoy a
summer tan, never under-
estimate the effect of color
in make-up. Let color dance
across your eyelids and
blossom on your cheeks.

So sharpen up with color.
Don't be shy . . . but if you
