Unite 1. Be realistic.

第一單元 要務實一點

One pound of fat equals 3，500 calories. To lose one pound，you need to consume 3，500 fewer calories.“That’s a lot!”we can hear you protesting. But you don’t have to do it all in one day. A realistic goal is to lose a pound a week by cutting back just 500 calories a day.One less burger and fries，fewer cookies.low-fat salad dressing，and you’re just about there for the week.Do it again next week and the week after, and you’re well on your way.

一磅的脂肪相當于三千五百卡。要減去一磅的體重，你需要消耗至少三千五百卡。“那樣很多耶!”我們可以聽到你的抗議。但你不必在一大之中都做到。一個比較務實的目標就是，一星期減一磅.這樣一天只要減五百卡就可以了。你只要少吃一個漢保和一份薯條，少吃一點餅干，改吃低脂沙拉醬.這樣一個早期下來.你差不多也減了三千五百卡。隔周再來一次.接下去的一星期也一樣，這樣一來你的節食計劃便上軌道了。

You may want to lose more than a pound a week.But studies suggest that if you cut calorie consumption too drastically.your body counteracts the effect of dieting. In other words,don’t try to cut out more than 500 calories from your daily diet.

你可能會想一星期減掉一磅以上的體重。但研究結果顯示，如果你的卡路里消耗量太過劇烈，你的身體會抵消掉節食的效果。換句話說，不要想從每天的飲食中減掉超過五百卡的熱量。
