WHITE PLAINS — THE two friends shopping at The Westchester mall figured the serious talk about dieting started about a year ago.
The two, Catherine Gray, 14, of Eastchester, and Maria Fufidio, 15, of Larchmont, say that they have tried dieting, and that they have a friend who, before she got her navel pierced, lost 10 pounds on the South Beach diet, which limits bread, potatoes and other carbohydrates.
”We go to an all-girls school,” Catherine said, reciting what she said was a typical dialogue at the Ursuline School in New Rochelle:
”I think I’m going to get a bag of chips.”
”I’m so fat.”
