bAre you trying to lose weight?
你在减肥吗？
aYeah, my friend is getting married next month and I’m supposed to be a bridesmaid. I have to fit into my dress and look nice for her wedding, but I haven’t lost any weight! Look at these love handles.
bYou don’t have to starve yourself to lose weight. I think that’s where you’re going wrong.
你不必通过挨饿来减肥，我认为你的方法不对。
aWhy? If I eat less, then my body will start eating away at my fat reserves, right?
为什么？如果我吃的少，那么身体就会消耗掉储存的多余脂肪，对吧？

你是说我应该吃东西，但是应该小心选择食品？
