芭芭拉，你减肥成功了吗？是的，一直在节食。

 

A: "Hi Barbara. Have you lost weight?"

B: "Hi Julie. Yeah. I've been on a diet for a couple of months now."

A: "Wow. You look great."

B: "Thanks for noticing."

A: "What type of diet were you on?"

B: "I joined a health club and my trainer gave me tips on eating. With a combination¹ of eating better and exercising, I managed to lose 15 pounds in 2 months."

A: "That's amazing. What tips did your trainer give you?"

B: "Mostly on how to exercise, but the best advice I got was changing my eating habits. Instead of eating 3 times a day, she told me to eat 5 times a day."

A: "That doesn't make sense. If you eat more, than how do you lose weight?"

B: "Actually, I'm eating the same amount. I eat 5 smaller meals a day. Basically², it naturally speeds up the metabolism³ and helps to burn fat at a faster rate."

A: "That makes sense. I'm going to try that."

B: "You don't need to lose weight."

A: "I have a little gut⁴ I have been trying to get rid of."

B: "Ah... but remember to incorporate⁵ a little exercise into your diet."

A: "Thanks for the advice."

B: "No problem."
