This bridge be- tween the old and the new is the perfect time for reflection, "On a clear day you can see forever," the song promises. At this particular time of year you can see a long way if you take stock. Weight control is the theme of this column, in one way or an- other. But it is so much more than: that, really. Successful slimming is a triumph of the mind, for it requires taking a new view, Eating is one of life's delightful pleasures. But when habitual overeating is allowed to replace other pleasures, then food subtracts from the joy of living. If you can acquire en- lightenment into why you con- tinue to eat more than you need --perhaps even more than you really want--you can be set ree, John Ciardi's poetic descrip- tion of the origin of an ulcer, could apply to poundage, liter- ally. Here itis... "An ulcer, gentlemen, is an unkissed imagination . . . tak- ing its revenge for having been jilted. It's an unwritten poem, a neglected music, an unpainted water color, an undanced dance. It's a declaration from the man- kind of the man that a clear spring of joy has not been tapped, and that it must break through, muddily, on its own." Reflect: When you feel at odds with yourself, do you turn to food to assuage some long- ing, or quiet some vague dis- content? Excessive eating is s0 often an expression of a mood. It's a habit pattern response to a given situation. By overeat- ing, are you trying to make up Acid Indigestion?

Just facing the fact and trying to ferret out what it is can be un- expectedly rewarding. A search- ing look can help you to get a new perspective. Recognize that you are deal- ing with a habit pattern. Seeing the pattern, you sense the need to change your thinking--along with your food habits. With a new attitude, weight control is not difficult. To con-| trol hunger, build each meal around the protective foods that provide the nutrients essential to health and well-being. In- clude a protein food at each of the three meals, starting with breakfast. With enlightenment, sudder'y' you know you can do anything! you want to do.
