如果你曾經做了什么新年計劃,恐怕現在就已經"破功"了吧?所以干嘛不重新來過?幾乎所有人都會在新年給自己制定一個健康計劃。通常是減肥、多運動、少喝酒或者戒煙。有的人甚至四項一起來。不過別。挑一個你真正想做的。把它寫下來、制定好計劃,并且告訴你身邊的人。
1. Don't bother with detoxing diets or regimes. There is no evidence that any of them work and your body detoxes itself quite well already thanks. Detox diets are usually highly restrictive and very low in calories. There is no magic bullet in dieting. It's all about sensible calorie restriction and exercise. Eat five servings of fruit and vegetables a day and don't eat because you are anything other than hungry.
1. 理性減肥很重要--關于什么排毒減肥餐、排毒養身法的就別管了。根本沒有證據表明它們真的有用,而感謝上帝你的身體本身就能很好地排毒。排毒減肥餐通常都異常嚴格、并且卡路里量極低。要記住在減肥中,沒有什么速成法。最有用就是理性控制卡路里攝入、多做運動。每天吃5份蔬果,還有,除非真的餓了,否則別吃東西。
2. Be altruistic. The positive psychology movement swears that doing good deeds has fabulous mental health benefits. Donate time or money to charity, or just make your colleagues copious cups of tea.
2. 心理健康同樣重要--在新的一年里放開懷、做個無私的人。心理學研究表明,多做好事對人的心理健康有絕對的好處。為慈善事業有錢出錢、有力出力、有時間奉獻時間吧!或者僅僅是幫你的同事泡一杯好茶,也能讓你身心健康。
3. Give up smoking. Even if you love it and your grandma smoked and lived to 100, you have to stop. It causes more cancers than there are cigarettes in a packet, it's expensive and you have to do it outside in the cold. Everyone wants you to stop!
3. 戒煙、一定要戒!--即便你就是愛死抽煙了,并且你祖母也抽、還活了100歲,你也得戒。它致癌、還貴、還逼得你必須到冷颼颼的室外站著吸。這就是人人都嚷著要你戒煙的原因!
4. Drink sensibly. You don't need to abstain during January as it has no long-term health benefits. Just don't open a bottle of wine between two of you every evening and decide it's not quite enough. For an evening, (especially a weekday) it really is.
4. 飲酒要適量--別嚷嚷著完全戒酒,跟著就只堅持到1月。不長期堅持真的一點用都沒有。別一到晚上就開酒、喝完一瓶還覺不夠。一瓶真的夠了,特別是工作日。
5. Be more active. Unless you already run marathons you can generally benefit from more exercise; do anything that increases your heart rate for 20-30 minutes, four times a week.
5. 多動動總是好的--除非你是剛剛跑完了馬拉松,多動動總是對你有好處的。任何能提高心率的運動都好,一次堅持20到30分鐘、一周四次。
