参考译文
肥胖人士要减肥的话,必须要密切关注自己的饮食。
最好的方法就是开始一项体重控制计划。
首先,与你的医生讨论这个问题,这是明智之举。
他可以建议每天你应该食用的卡路里的数量,他可以告诉你在节食的时候要注意运动。
一个很好的方法就是慢慢地减肥,一次减少一两磅就很多了。
用你熟悉的食物计划你的三餐。
这就意味着,你的节食计划里应该包括那些你习惯了的、成为你通常饮食习惯一部分的食物。
当你达到你希望的重量时,可以将一些简单的食物添加到你的饮食中,以便你能保持你想要的体重。
当你节食的时候,试着养成一个以后你还能保持的饮食习惯,从而可以维持你的理想体重。
节食时,要食用低卡路里的食物,不要吃如肥肉、油炸食品、糖果、蛋糕、奶油和软饮料之类的东西。
试着喝不带糖和奶油的咖啡或茶。
小点心可以是你食谱的一部分。
例如,可以在正餐之间吃一片水果或者一份饭后剩下的简单的甜点。
保持忙碌!
这样的话你将可以脱离你的食物。
充分利用各种锻炼的机会,只要有可能,就要尽量走路而不是开车。
节食愉快!
