Keeping trim is for all seasons
By PATTY RHULE

Tihs being the last dieting
column this year, now is the
time to kick you dieters out of
the nest and let you flap your
wings on your own at least
for the summer.
Summer can be a dieter's
Waterloo, with picnics,
parties, Dairy queen trips and
other potentially fattening
activities. On the other hand,
if you play your cards right,
summer could be your time to
throw all your chips in the pot
and come away a happy
loser!
Picnics are as much a part
of summer as sun tan lotion
and mosquitoes. Since usual
picnic fare includes such
caloric catastrophes as
hamburgers (quarter
pounders 223 calories), hot
dogs (124 calories each),
potato chips, pretzels, soft
drinks and beer, some advice
should be given as to how you
can picnic without becoming
plump. ,
One way to cut the calories
in the food you eat is by
careful preparation. For
The world's leading manufacturer of diamond and wedding rings
knows when it's time for a brand-new look in college rings.

picnickers this could mean
dry-frying hamburgers in
coarse salt, not fat. An article
in Seventeen magazine said
this saved calories and tasted
good, too.
Pack fresh fruits and
vegetables in your picnic
basket rather than junk foods.
Three carrot sticks contain
only 13 calories and make
good eating even if your'
name isn't Bugs. Green
seedless grapes (18 to 20)
contain 21 calories, one-half
cup sour cherries has 58, and
one medium-sized orange has
73.
Apples, pears, cantaloupes,
melons, peaches and other
fruits that are available in
great quantity during the
summer months taste good,
are low in calories, and are
good for you.
Instead of guzzling beer and
soda at the picnic, drink iced
tea (without sugar is has no
calories) or diet soda.
Lemonade, although
refreshing, is a relatively
high-calorie drink at 104
calories per glass.

of women's college rings.

those of you who have been
using poor weather as an
excuse for lack of exercise,
summer is the time to get out
and move! Softball, frisbee,
volleyball, swimming are all
great summertime ac
tivities and you may get a
tan in the process.
If part of your summertime
routine includes a nightly raid
of your local ice cream
parlor, be aware that one
banana split contains 649
calories. An unadulterated
banana at 127 calories would
be better fare for dieters.
Ten large strawberries
contain only 37 calories. When
sliced and frozen with sugar
added, the caloric value is
quadrupled to 140 calories in
1 / 2 cup berries. And when
made into strawberry
shortcake, with one cup of
berries and one medium
biscuit, the end product has
399 calories.
Ice cream contains ap
proximately 255 to 300
calories per cup, and sherbet
has 260 per cup. If you must
indulge, try ice milk (200

An article in Seventeen
suggested fruit slushes as
refreshing summer drinks.
To make a pineapple slush,
unsweetened pineapple
chunks. Spread the chunks on
paper towels on a baking
sheet and place them in the
freezer for 30 minutes.
Remove the chunks from the
freezer and whirl 1 / 2 cup of the
including summer
chunks in a blender. This
recipe makes four servings of
slush.
