I was never really overweight as a child, so it's surprising that I was going on a diet at age 12. That's girlhood in America for you. It's even worse now; the obsession can kill you. [Rest assured, I wasn't so good at sticking to those plans.] I do remember my Mom and her friend Vera doing Atkins....and one of them baking an Atkins cheesecake.
March 13, 1973 [age 12]: I played with I. and Lynn. Had G.S. It was beautiful. One week from today is Spring! Really went on a diet! Bifsore.
March 14, 1973: Stuck to Bifsore. Drank water. Had gum instead of food. It rained during school. I played with Linda. Studied His. Mom went to opera.
March 13, 1974 [age 13]: Mommy is at the opera with Rita Blake. I got 100 in Science. Lorraine was absent with a cold. I called her. Deb T. is also sick. Irene and I talked.

- Boot camp in the park. Gorgeous day.
- Walked Sug around block.
- Bento box lunch special, $10.11 counting tax.
- Nap.
- Listening to my CDs on laptop while I work. Diana Krall, smoky! And also audio version of The Outermost House.
Whatever "Bifsore" is, it sounds extreme! (Gum instead of food.) Maybe Sis can help you break the code. Will talk soon. Love, Lin
ReplyDeleteHi Lin. i will ask Sis but i doubt it. i had a lock and key and codewords so no one else in my house could understand. btw, gum instead of food...it think that was between meals....? love al
