是什么毁了你的减肥大业

遍尝各种减肥方法的你,始终是个胖子,你的减肥血泪史都可以出书了,有没有?为什么别人都瘦下来了,就你没有?事实是,你用错了方法!那些看似不起眼的小动作才是阻碍你的减肥大业的元凶!You Rely on Convenient Transportation

能不走路就不走路

You take the elevator when you need to go up a few floors, youget on the little motorized walk ramp at the airport, and you parkas close to the front door as possible. At first glance, choosingthese little convenient modes of transportation doesn't appear tomake much of a difference in your daily life. The fact is, they do.A flight of stairs burns, on average, 15 calories. If you're takingstairs at work, the mall or in your home on an average day, thatcould add up to 225 or more extra calories burned. Walk a bitfurther to get to the front door when you're shopping and you couldburn an extra 30. Forgoing the automatic walkway in the airport -an extra 100! When given the opportunity, use your body, not theelevator or the car. That's what it's made for.
就算只有几级台阶,你也要搭电梯。机场的步行电梯你从来都不会放过。把车停在靠近商场前门的位置,越近越好。起初,这种代步的便捷工具看似对你的日常生活没有多大影响,事实是,它们的影响大着呢。走楼梯的话,平均每层可以消耗15卡路里。如果你每天都走楼梯上下班、进出商场、在家走动的话,那么你每天就能多消耗至少225卡路里。去逛街时,多走几步路去商场门口也能多消耗30卡路里。在机场不走步行电梯的话,还能多消耗100卡路里!只要有机会,就多动动你的身体,别总是坐电梯或坐车,你的身体是用来让你动的。

You Love Your Diet Cola
健怡可乐你最爱

No calories mean no weight gain, right? This is the popularline of reasoning for many diet soda drinkers. Unfortunately,current research indicates a possible link between artificialsweetener consumption and weight gain. A study in the journalDiabetes Care found that daily consumption of diet soda wasassociated with a 36 percent greater relative risk of developingmetabolic syndrome and a 67 percent greater relative risk ofdeveloping Type 2 diabetes compared with non-consumption. Inaddition to this, the presence of constant artificial sweeteners inthe diet means you're never really letting your taste buds get abreak from the sweet taste you love. The more you drink diet soda,the longer you'll remain trapped in the sugar cycle and continue tocrave.
不含热量就不会长胖,对不对?大多数爱喝健怡可乐的人都有这种误区。可悲的真相是,有研究表明,摄入人工增甜剂也会增肥。《关爱糖尿病》杂志上的一项研究显示,每天喝健怡可乐的人比起那些不喝的人来说,引发与新陈代谢相关的疾病的概率要大36%,而引发II型糖尿病的概率则会高出67个百分点。另外,经常食用人工增甜剂也说明,你的味蕾还是一直与你爱吃的甜食相伴。因此,你就陷入了这样的怪圈,健怡可乐你喝得越多,你就越离不开甜食。

You're Off in Outer Space
宅男宅女不出门

The feel, smell and satisfaction of food are one of the mainpleasures of life. You may miss these food advantages though ifyou're like most people and spend your meals and snacks in front ofa TV, computer screen or newspaper. If this sounds like you, you'reprobably taking in way more calories than you think. A 2010 studyin the Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that adding stimuliduring mealtime increased not only the amount of food an individualconsumed at that particular meal, but also increased calorieconsumption later in the day as well. Enjoy your food and thecompany of friends and family, it will help you lost.
品味美食的色香味是人生一大享受。但如果你和大多数人一样,吃饭的时候就窝在电脑电视前,或缩在报纸堆里的话,那么你就享受不到食物给你带来的乐趣了。听起来是不是有点像你?那么你可能就因此摄入了更多的热量。《临床营养学》2010年的一项研究发现,假设一个人在吃饭时出现了外力的刺激,这顿饭他就会吃得更多,而且在接下去的一天里都会摄入更多的热量。所以,和家人朋友一起分享美食吧,可以减肥哦!
