Betty Ford tells us she bases her eating plan on a controlled and well-balanced approach. She firmly ' believes in a full breakfast. For example some days she has: toast, tea, soft-boiled egg, orange juice, and finds this way of starting the day is essential in order to avoid overeating. She also shuns desserts and never eats candy. Currently at 110, Mrs. Ford has taken off about 29 pounds in the last two-and-a-half to three years. What prompted this weight loss, she says, was that one day when leisurely weighing herself, she saw the scale register 189, and prompt ly made a resolution never to hit 140. The first ten pounds came off in two months. Then when her husband was nominated for the Vice-Presidency, she lost another ten. The First Lady avoids fad diets, and confesses that she really doesn't have a sweet tooth. Her favorite beverage is tea. In addi tion, she exercises regularly and has always loved to dance. But she balances everything, and concen trates on eating nutritious meals. ~ Catherine Sabino ,. \\feigl ··122 /Te/: (212) 838-8964 . ·s Mrs. Be' ForIf. The Wht.

"lC88 Pe- 14 EW YORK - In 99 out of 100 cases, they have to be changed. But sometimes the changes are even worse than the natural fact. Eyebrows -- correctly shai>ed eyebrows- : ~ are one of the most trying N areas of facial beauty. And too much plu~klng, bleaching, dyeing or penclllng can distort even the most awesomely proportioned face. WWD asked face~maker Way Bandy -who is responsible for zipping up women from Cristlna.. Ford to Martha Mitchell - to prescribe some brow guidelines. His brow-beating credo ls based on four premises: "First, the eyebrows should never be a thing in themselves. Eyebrows are meant to be frames for the eyes - not pictures. Second, allowances must be made for individuality - nQt everybody looks terrific with a pencll thln eyebrow shape. Third, eyebrow shaping must begin directly above t.he Inside corner of the eye, and the lower part of the brow must .follow the line of the top eyelid. And fourth, eyebrows should be left fairly natural on the top and never dyed to match the hair." ~:if: i.
