My View on Losing Weight

When it comes to the standard of good figure, people have the stereotype, i.e., the slimmer, the better. Just open a fashion magazine, all the super-models are skinny. It seems that only a thin person can look good in a fine dress. So, more and more people, especially young girls, are joining the team of losing weight. However, I think losing weight blindly can lead to negative effects.

說到好身材的標準，人們都有一種刻板印象，那就是越瘦越好看。隨便翻開一本雜志，所有的模特都很瘦。似乎只有瘦子才能駕馭一條好看的裙子。所以，越來越多的人，特別是年輕的女孩們，開始加入到減肥大軍的行列中去。然而，我認為不恰當?shù)臏p肥會造成很多負面效果。
On one hand, losing weight blindly can cause eating disorder, low blood sugar and anxiety. Some girls are already in good shape, but they pay too much attention to their outwards appearance and spare no efforts to lose weight. In order to reach this goal, the young girls leave out breakfast; eat a little rice and some fruit at lunch, as to the supper, just few cabbage leaves and several bottles of water. They all forget that human’s body needs enough energy so it can function well. However, these young girls fail to realize this. They refuse to take meats or any other so-called gain-weight food. As a result, their bodies had suffered contortion due to malnutrition. Accord to the research, the person who loses weight improper is more easily getting fracture than others. What’s more, losing weight takes courage and determination. Not every losing weight girl has a strong will. You may hear her say that she wants to lose weight, and later you will see her eating junk-food because she is too hungry. Some of the girls eat nothing in the morning while take lots of food in the afternoon. Such behaviors can lead to eating-disorder. It’s really unwise to do so.
一方面，盲目的減肥可能會引起飲食失調(diào)，低血糖和焦慮癥。一些女孩的身材已經(jīng)很好了，但是她們對自己的外觀要求太高，以至于不惜余力減肥。為了達到這一目標，這些女孩不吃早餐，中餐就吃幾口米飯和一些水果，至于晚餐就吃幾片菜葉，喝下好幾瓶水。她們完全忘記了人的身體需要足夠的能量才能運轉(zhuǎn)，可是她們并沒有意識到這一點。她們拒絕吃肉，也不吃所謂的“會長胖”的食物。結(jié)果就是，她們的身材由于營養(yǎng)不良而變得扭曲。研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，那些減肥不合理的人骨折的概率要高于正常人。而且，減肥需要勇氣和決心。不是每個減肥的女孩都有著堅定不移的信念的。也許你聽說今天她要減肥，過了一會兒就會看見她在吃垃圾食品，因為實在是餓得不行。有些人甚至早上不吃東西，下午則吃一大堆食品，這樣會導致飲食失調(diào)。這實在不是明智之舉。
On the other hand, doing physical exercise and eating a healthy diet is a wise way to lose weight. Eat three meals a day. Leave out the junk food, such as chocolates, bread which contain trans-fat, soft drinks, and so on. Try to eat more fruit and vegetables. Eating meat is not the main factor of gaining weight, but eating more.
另一方面，進行體育運動和培養(yǎng)健康的飲食習慣是減肥的好方法。每天吃三餐，不吃垃圾食品。例如說巧克力、含有反式脂肪的面包，軟飲料等等。試著吃更多的蔬菜和水果。而吃肉不是長胖的主要原因之一,吃太多的肉才是。
Do not follow the trend blindly. You don’t need to suffer from your peers’ pressure just because they tell you that the thinner, the better. But one thing is true, healthy is the beauty.
不要盲目的跟風減肥，也不需要承受來自同齡人的壓力，只因為他們告訴你說越瘦越美麗。只有一件事是真的，那就是健健康康才是美。
