本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了青少年时期就发胖的Katherine Jackson在生完孩子后体重不断增加。为了更好地生活下去,Jackson进行了肥胖病的治疗,不仅改变了自己的饮食习惯,而且还增加了日常的锻炼,同时也给孩子树立了好榜样。现在的她对以后的生活充满了希望。
Katherine Jackson was overweight since her teens. She lost 35 pounds in her late teens but put it all back on and then some when she had her son at 19. She said it was a combination of a sweet tooth and portion size that was her reason for failure. “I could eat lots of ice cream and not even think about it,” the married mother of four added.
Katherine Jackson青少年就超重。她青少年后期减了35磅,但在她19岁生了儿子后体重反弹并且增加了一些。她说她喜欢吃甜食以及大量的食物导致她增胖。这个已婚妈妈家有四位成员, 她补充道:“我可以吃一品脱冰淇淋,甚至不会去想它。”
She knew she had to do something, but the death of her best friend from complications related to bariatric surgery(肥胖外科手术) caused her to shy away from the help she needed. “It took me five years to realize I can’t live life like this,” Jackson said, finally deciding to have bariatric surgery in 2012, which helped her get rid of most unwanted fat. “My kids love the new me,” Jackson said. “And, my youngest, who is 8 and a little overweight, has been encouraged by me. We walk the track when it is warm as a family outing.” She adds, “I knew I had to do something about my health because I had to be around for them and watch them grow and experience life.”
她知道自己得做一些事情,但是她的朋友死于和肥胖症治疗手术相关的并发症这件事还是让她心生胆怯而不愿针对自己所需作出求助。Jackson 说:“我花了五年时间才意识到我不能活得像现在这样。”她最后决定于2012年做减肥搭桥手术。她说:“我的孩子们很喜欢全新的我。而且我最小的儿子,他才8岁就有点胖,他也受到我的激励。作为家庭出游,当天气暖和的时候我们沿着小路上散步。”她补充说道:“关于健康我知道我必须做一些事,因为我要保持健康,看着他们变好并体验生活。”
After a lifetime of junk food, sweets and out-of-control portions, Jackson had to learn a new way of eating. Now, she starts the day with a breakfast of eggs for the protein(蛋白质). Lunch is usually a salad and dinner is a protein shake. She walks two to three miles at least a few times a week, does Zumba(尊吧舞) twice a week and rides her bike for a half-hour three times a week.
在结束很长一段时间的垃圾食品、甜食和不受控制的食量之后,Jackson必须学会一种新的饮食方式。现在,她早餐开始吃煮鸡蛋摄取蛋白质。午餐通常是沙拉,晚餐是蛋白质奶昔。她至少每周几次走两到三英里的路,每周两次跳尊吧舞,并且每周三次骑一个半小时的自行车。
