GOING POSITIVE 积极向上
I always wanted to look like the slim girls on TV even though I knew that it was impossible. I worried about my weight and tried every new diet I read about online. I tried no-fat, low-fat, 5:2, only bananas, no bananas—I almost went bananas, too.
我总是努力想让自己看起来像电视上的那些苗条女孩,尽管我明知这不可能。我十分担心我的体重,也尝试了网上看到的每一种新的减肥饮食方案。我尝试了无脂肪、低脂肪、5:2(轻断食法)、只吃香蕉、不吃香蕉一一我也几近疯狂。

Then I read an article that said instead of asking “Am I fat?” I should be asking “Am I fit?” I had no idea a letter could make such a difference! Once I started thinking about fitness rather than weight, things began to change. Instead of saying “I want to lose three kilos”, I would say “I want to run two kilometres in eight minutes” or “I want to be able to do 30 push-ups”. Rather than cutting out the foods I enjoyed, I added healthy foods to my meals. I could still have a burger now and then, but I would add a salad or an apple.
后来,我看到一篇文章,说不要问自己“我胖吗?”而应该问“我健康吗?”我没有料到一词之差,区别竟如此之大!一旦我开始考虑健康而不是体重,事情就有了变化。我不会说“我想减掉三公斤”,我会说“我想在八分钟内跑完两千米”或“我希望能做30个俯卧撑”。我不再拒绝我喜爱的食物,而是在自己的三餐中添加健康食品。我仍然能偶尔吃个汉堡,但我会加上一份沙拉或一个苹果。
