how i stay in shape, by marilyn monroe
我如何保持身材——玛丽莲·梦露
"
1, 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
2 like the exercise people on the radio; i couldn't stand exercise if i had to feel
regimented（受管制的） 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

4（怠惰的） 5. 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
6. 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

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
8. 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

10 for a hot
fudge（软糖） sundae on my way home from my evening drama classes. i'm sure that i couldn't allow myself this
indulgence（嗜好，放纵） were it not that my normal diet is composed almost totally of protein foods."
