已经有很多人的经验证明,大一新生多数都会长胖。准备进入大学的同学们,提前做好迎接freshman 15的心理准备吧。
15 is said to be the number of pounds that many students gain in their first year of college; and freshman 15 is the often observed phenomenon of weight gain among first year college students.
据说,之所以会出现15这个数字是因为很多学生在大一这一年体重会增加15磅(约13斤);而freshman 15则指代学生上大一时体重增加这个现象。
除此之外,上班族在休假期间长胖的可能性也很高,大概是因为休假期间神经放松,出去玩的时候又经受不住美食的诱惑吧。
Holiday pounds refer to the extra little bit of weight you put on during a period of being on holiday or vacation.
Holiday pounds指休假或者节假日期间额外增长的那部分体重,我们可以戏称为“假期胖子”。
For example:
Man, when I get back to work I'll have to start going to the gym again- I've put on some serious holiday pounds.
唉,等我回去上班,我得开始去健身房了,休假长了不少肉。
所以呢,挺容易长胖的这一代人就有了个名字叫Genaration XL。XL什么意思?出去买衣服的时候就知道了!
Generation XL refers to children or young adults who are overweight, XL refers to the size extra large in clothing.
