GLAMOUR IS THEIR BUSINESS
She's q CoIorie Counter
Patti Page Tells About Dieting
By LYDIA LANE
Times-Mirror Syndicate

HOLLYWOOD-One of the
greatest pleasures in life is
the Joy Of accomplishment,
and it is understandable that
Patti Page smiles contentedly
when she confesses that her
problem with her weight is a
thing of the past.
Some people go through life
talking about the diet they
never go on and carry a wish
for a good figure that is
never realized.
What is your secret for
staying slender?" I asked
Patti, as we chatted on the
set Of Elmer Gantry."
I suppose you could sum it
up as resolving not to make
the same mistakes twice."
Patti revealed. "Overeating is
what makes you fat. and that
was q habit I decided to
break. My stomach shrunk
while I was on a rigid diet
and I don't intend to stretch
1t again.
II manage to enjoy what
! eat but I am a calorie
counter. Each person has to
discover what maintains his
weight-mine is $500 calories
a day. I have counted calories
so long that I can almost
estimate a meal by looking
at it.
Don't Fight 1t
you can't fight a diet.
You have to experiment un-
til you hit on a plan you are
happy following. What works
for me is having a light
breakfast, for I'm never hun
cry in the morning. A health
full but light lunch such as
cottage cheese. groundIround
patty or a salad and then a
really nice three-course din
ner with a highball first"
DO you weigh every day?"
! asked.
mo. I feel that a more
accurate way is to 60 by my
waiStline. If my skirt feels
slightly snug, I cut down on
my eating"
do you think the mental
side of dieting is Important"
"Of course" Patti ex-
claimed. IF too many rela-
tives or friends are trying to
get you to lose weight, it can
build up a block. ] know I
was awfully stubborn. Until
you want to be thinner, you
won't deny yourself the
things you like to eat. One
Of the big pitfalls is the
snackS, soft drinks-the
things you nibble on when
you watch TV. Now If I feel
hungry between meals, / take
consomme on the rocks or
a glass of skim milk.
MY husband Charlie
O'Curran) was the first one
who inspired me to lose
weight" she confided. He
didn't stress the point but
said that he thought ! would

thinner. When I saw myself
on TV. I agreed with him and
that was the beginning. I
wore a size IL then and now
for three years I've worn an

geous clothes in this picture,
but I'm in a Salvation Army

added.
On Fashion

and I asked her opinions on
