from 'the new you'

philosophies

'i am convinced that all successful models--all beautiful women, for that matter--have one single thing in common. It isn't a perfect nose, a flawless skin, a refined bone structure; it is simply that they care'.

'measure your bust, waist and hips and compare them with the desirable proportions chart on page 36. if your proportions need work, don't be discouraged--there's hardly a model who started out perfect'.

'no matter what our life-style, we are all members of a vast legion of potential "fatties"'.

'i shudder to remember i weighed 149 pounds. today, i get vicarious appetite appeasement just remembering my favorite gourmet delicacies'.

exercises

'stand with your legs apart. bend forward from your waist and clasp a rod, rolling pin or ruler in your hands behing your back'.

'"deep breathing". one super exercise to practice in the kitchen or anywhere--anytime you think of it. it's an allover beauty exercise that benefits hair, skin and general health'.

golden rule

'desirable weight chart: for girls 18 to 25, subtract 1 pound for each year under 25. for girls planning a modeling career, subtract 8 to 10 pounds'.
