春节后遗症：你的体重你控制

If you're impulsive.。。

如果你是冲动型……

"People tend to be either a 'one-marshmallow person' or a 'two-marshmallow person.'" If you're struggling with weight loss, you are more likely a one-marshmallow person. Eliminating little temptations will help: stop stocking your pantry with junk food, and avoid the break room at work when you know there will be leftover treats。

他说：“人们不是‘一个棉花糖型’就是‘两个棉花糖型’，如果减肥对你而言很痛苦，那你很可能是‘一个棉花糖型’。战胜小诱惑能有所帮助：停止往食品柜里囤积垃圾食品，工作时避开留有点心的休息室。

If you're reliable.。。

如果你是可靠型……

Always on time? Follow rules by the book? It means you're conscientious, a trait that makes it easier to stick with an eating or fitness plan. However, whether you're conscientious or not, there's a paradox in that creating a plan forces you to think about food all the time, which can work against you。

总是准点准时?总是循规蹈矩?这说明你很认真，很容易把一套饮食或健身计划坚持下去。不过矛盾的是，不管你是否认真，制定计划或许反倒会逼你一直想着食物，结果适得其反。

The solution: create routines not specifically about dropping pounds that will still lead to weight loss, Markman suggests. For example, instead of driving your kids the mile to school, start walking with them。

马克曼认为解决办法就是：减肥计划不要制定得具体到究竟要减掉多少体重。比如，你以前都是开车送小孩上学，现在可以尝试走过去。

If you're prone to mood swings.。。

如果你是情绪波动型……

The way you ride life's rollercoaster　determines your emotional stability. "If you're emotionally excitable, things are either very good or the worst ever," says Markman. Some people are emotional eaters, so the more you're on the emotional rollercoaster the more likely you are to reach for food。

你如何应对“人生过山车”会影响你的情绪稳定性。“如果你情绪易激动，事情不是极好就是极差。”马克曼说。有些人会情绪化地吃东西。所以，你越容易情绪波动，就越会寻求食物安慰。

If you're quiet.。。

如果你是安静型……

Introverts are more likely to possess qualities that enable them to commit to a healthy diet and regular exercise routine, both of which require restraint, difficult for more impulsive people, she says. Extroverts should plan ahead for situations that test willpower. If you know you're headed to a party.

“内向的人所具备的性格特点能让他们坚持健康饮食和规律运动，这两样都需要节制，冲动的人很难做到。”她说。面对考验意志力的情况，外向的人应该提前做好准备。

If you're a night owl.。。

如果你是夜猫子型……

Staying up until the wee hours may wreak havoc with your waistline. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania found that people who were kept up until 4 a.m. ate 550 additional calories during their late night hours. What's more, a higher percentage of the late-night calories came from high-fat foods than they did during daytime hours。

熬夜直到凌晨可能会严重毁掉你的腰型。宾夕法尼亚大学的研究人员发现，熬夜到凌晨4点的人在熬夜期间能消耗掉550单位的额外卡路里。而且，大部分夜间卡路里是从白天吸收的高脂肪食物中释放出来的。

If you're an early bird...

如果你是早起鸟型……

In an Australian study, participants who woke up early were less likely to be overweight than night owls -- even though both groups slept the same number of hours. Although this study involved young children, the results are likely applicable to adults as well, says Allen Towfigh, M.D., sleep specialist and neurologist　affiliated with Weill Cornell Medical Center and New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City. "If you love to sleep in, you may not be getting enough sleep, in which case you need to go to bed earlier to increase your total sleep time." Towfigh recommends adults strive for seven to nine hours of sleep per night。

某个澳大利亚研究表明，较之于夜猫子，早起的人不太容易发胖——即便他们的睡眠时间完全一样。尽管该研究也涉及到小孩，但结果很可能也适用于成人，医学博士艾伦-托费说道。他是威尔康奈尔医学中心以及纽约市纽约长老会医院的睡眠专家。“如果你爱睡懒觉，或许会常常觉得睡眠不足，这种情况下你应该早点上床来增加总体睡眠时间。”托费建议成年人每晚睡足七到九个小时。

If you're ea sygoing.。。

如果你是随和型……

People who go with the flow tend to be leaner than those who are more neurotic, according to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. In some cases, however, this may backfire, says Markman. "Highly agreeable people may stress over failure because they're afraid of letting other people down. This stress can actually get in the way of successful weight loss, because stress makes it harder to resist temptation."

根据《人格与社会心理学》杂志上的一份研究显示，顺其自然的人比神经质的人更苗条。但有时候也会适得其反，马克曼说。“过于随和的人也会害怕失败，害怕让其他人失望。这种压力其实会妨碍减肥，毕竟，压力会降低对诱惑的抵抗力。”
