KEEP IN TRIM Overweight F

By IDA JEAN KAIN Dieters. like everyone else. thrive on praise. "My, how well you loook-you've lost weight!" is a remark that can keep a re- ducer enthusiastically on the streamlining course. Unfortunate- ly, however. there seems in be a. strong tendency on the part of! many non-dieting overweight to discourage their friends from tak- ing needed reducing action.

For example. you are lunching-I with a friend and turn down a

rich dessert. Does the friend com-l pliment you on your will power?'. Well-not always. If the friend

longs to eat the rich chocolate

layer cake and realizes that cal-. orie-wise she shouldn't indulgc., without being consciously awarel of her motive she may reason along this line . '1 really want to order that chocolate cake. but if June does not, I'll feel guilty. So I'll coax her to eat dessert . . then I can enjoy mine."

One struggling dicter found her- self persuaded to eat so many desserts, she concluded she had better give up her overweight friends for the dieting period. Alas they had proved "too fattening." FRIENDS N0 HELP

Protesting to your dictition. one reducer wrote. I can always count on my corpulent friends to rally round and discourage me. They shake their heads and remark. 'You looked so much better be- fore you started losing weight . women our age need a little extra weight.' "

What lies back of such under- mining remarks? The psycholo- gist explains that a non-dieting overweight may feel pangs of guilt or even regard as a threat to her security the idea of a friend becoming beautifully slim. In all fairnesss it should be pointed out that too fast reducing or losing weight on a lopsided diet can have adverse effects on hulth and looks. Also, because slenderness is so fashionable, there is a tendency for some dieters to carrry reducing too far. and friends may show an honest concern.
