玛丽莲梦露谈如何保持身材 How I Stay in Shape, By Marilyn Monroe 我如何保持身材玛丽莲梦露 Frankly, I ve never considered my own figure so exceptional; until quite recently, I seldom gave it any thought at all. My biggest single concern used to be getting enough to eat. Now I have to worry about eating too much. I never used to bother with exercises. Now I spend at least 10 minutes each morning working out with small weights. I have evolved my own exercises, for the muscles I wish to keep firm, and I know they are right for me because I can feel them putting the proper muscles into play as I exercise. She Doesn t Like To Feel Regimented Exercise. Each morning after I brush my teeth, wash my face and shake off the first deep layer of sleep, I lie down on the floor beside my bed and begin my first exercise. It is a simple bust-firming routine which consists of lifting five-pound weights from a spread-eagle arm position to a point directly above my head. I do this 15 times, slowly. I repeat the exercise another 15 times from a position with my arms above my head. Then, with my arms at a 45-degree angle from the floor, I move my weights in circles until I m tired. I don t count rhythmically like the exercise people on the radio; I couldn t stand exercise if I had to feel regimented about it. How To Feel Blond All Over Sports. I have never cared especially for outdoor sports, and have no desire to excel at tennis, swimming, or golf. I ll leave those things to the men. Despite its great vogue in California, I don t think sun-tanned skin is any more attractive than white skin, or any healthier, for that matter. I m personally opposed to a deep tan because I like to feel blond all over. By nature, I suppose I have a languorous disposition. I hate to do things in a hurried, tense atmosphere, and it is virtually impossible for me to spring out of bed in the morning. On Sunday, which is my one day of total leisure, I sometimes take two hours to wake up, luxuriating in every last moment of drowsiness. Depending upon my activities, I sleep between five and ten hours every night. I sleep in an extra-wide single bed, and I use only one heavy down comforter over me, summer or winter. I have never been able to wear pajamas or creepy nightgowns; they disturb my sleep. A Set of Bizarre Eating Habits Breakfast. I ve been told that my eating habits are absolutely bizarre, but I don t think so. Before I take my morning shower, I start warming a cup of milk on the hot plate I keep in my hotel room. When it s hot, I break two raw eggs into the milk, whip them up with a fork, and drink them while I m dressing. I supplement this with a multi-vitamin pill, and I doubt if any doctor could recommend a more nourishing breakfast for a working girl in a hurry. Dinner. My dinners at home are startlingly simple. Every night I stop at the market near my hotel and pick up a steak, lamb chops or some liver, which I broil in the electric oven in my room. I usually eat four or five raw carrots with my meat, and that is all. I must be part rabbit; I never get bored with raw carrots. P.S. It s a good thing, I suppose, that I eat simply during the day, for in recent months I have developed the habit of stopping off at Wil Wright s ice cream parlor for a hot fudge sundae on my way home from my evening drama classes. I m sure that I couldn t allow myself this indulgence were it not that my normal diet is composed almost totally of protein foods. |
