This week the quest to
lose weight continues,
with Bertha Supulski and
her daughter, Bert
Quadrini, telling our
readers, how, between
them both, they managed
to shed 118Y4 pounds.
Last year, after the
Christmas holidays, both
Bertha and Bert decided
they would like to lose
weight. Having heard
about Weight Watchers,
Bertha suggested they
both join. They attended
their first class, Feb. 10,
and now, not a year later,
Bertha has lost 50 pounds
and has been on the
maintenance program for
the past 14 weeks, while
Bert has lost 68Y4 pounds.
Both are lifetime mem-
bers and couldn’t be
happier about it.
Both agreed that at first
there seemed to be a lot to
learn but once a Weight
Watchers’ member learns
the program, the diet is
easy to follow. Bertha was
a real ‘‘butter lover’ but
learned to enjoy Weight
Watchers margarine.
Both Bert and Bertha
enjoyed the Weight
Watchers ice cream
popsicles, bread and pizza
while losing. A member is
not required to purchase
the Weight Watchers
brands but the various
frozen foods and items are
delicious and and all are
made in servings which
are f‘legal’’ on the
program.
The meetings were very
supportive, somewhere to
discuss any problem foods
or any dieting difficulties
encountered during the
week. For Bert the
meetings were the best
part. In fact, she has
never missed a meeting in
the time she has been
attending Weight Wat-
chers. Both feel the lec-
turer, Myrtle Karl, is a
great help with her advice
and encouragement. At
each weekly meeting, a
member is weighed
privately. Following
weigh-in, a lecture using
modules or suggestions
for weight loss is given.
Members must eat all
foods on the daily food
plan, and according to
Bertha and Bert there is
plenty to eat.
Bertha has worked with
food for many years.
After working in the
Dallas School cafeteria
for 20 years, she now
operates the summer
camp kitchen at the
Jewish Community
Center as well as
preparing any luncheons,
breakfasts or private
parties they may have
there.
Bertha and her
husband, Ernest, live in
Dallas. An electrician,
Ernest is working for
Brennan Electric Com-
pany at Nesbitt Memorial
Hospital. The Supulskis
have five children, Ernest
L. who lives in Chantilly,
Va. with his wife, Diane,
and their two children,
Scott and Christina. He is
a guidance counselor for
Fairfax County. Roy, who
lives in Dallas, Texas,
manages Video Concepts.
He has two daughters,
Heather and Erin. Cindy,
married to Carl Siglin, Jr.
lives in Noxen. The Siglins
have two children, Kelly
and Peggy. Cindy works
in a sewing factory while
Carl works with his dad in
car repair. Bert and her
husband, Joe, live in
Valley View Trailer Park.

way to get thin but as a
way to stay thin.

the diet and stick to it. A
positive attitude is a
must. Picturing yourself
