双语阅读:减了又肥的五个原因之四(口译笔译)
为了某件事减肥,却不为了生活减肥。
参加生日聚会、婚礼、同学会、大型社交活动甚至迎接夏天都成了我们减肥的理由。活动一结束,我们就开始了增肥的历程。大家就是这么干的,别觉得我说话讨厌,不信你看看周围的人。如果人的一辈子就是一个漫长的生日,我们谁都会苗条无比。为了某个目的我们一时间改变行为习惯,这就使得我们在潜意识里期盼着回归正常。所谓的正常,无非就是做那些让我们一步一步走向肥胖的蠢事。
We get in shape for events, but not for life.
Yep, I’ve said it before, we’re great at losing weight for birthdays, weddings, school reunions, big social events and even summer. And then we’re great at getting fat again. It’s what we do. Don’t get mad at me, just take a look around. If only life was one long birthday, we’d all look amazing 24/7. We change our behaviour for a while, but on a level below our conscious (and temporary) behaviours, we’re simply waiting to go back to normal. Normal being the same behaviours that lead us to obesity in the first place.
