揭露减肥过程中的十大假象

　　10、Diets Do Work 节食是有用的

　　The phrase diets don't work has been drummed into us by book titles, advertising slogans, and other such mantras. But the truth is, you can lose weight following pretty much every diet on the bookstore shelf. The problem is that unless the diet fits your lifestyle, it's bound to fail, and your weight will creep back on. You want a diet you can live with. If you like sandwiches for lunch, for example, you'll have trouble sticking to a low-carb diet. If you hate counting calories and find it much easier to follow rules — like avoiding carbs — Atkins may be for you. And if you really love your olive oil, the Mediterranean diet is more appealing than a true low-fat diet. If you're trying to lose weight, you have to exercise your options.

　　好多书名、广告标语和类似地方都鼓吹节食不能减肥。但事实上，书店里任何一本节食书都能让你减掉体重。问题在于除非节食方法适合你的生活方式，否则必然会失败。比如说，如果你喜欢中文吃三明治，坚持低碳节食法就会有难度。如果你讨厌计算卡路里，喜欢遵守条目，比如避免碳水化合物，阿特金斯节食法就很适合你。如果你热爱橄榄油，地中海式减肥法比低脂节食更有效。想减肥，你就得弄清自己的选择。
