Steps & Tips

5. Weight loss is most likely to be successful when people change their habits. Here are several ways to make that happen.
Regular physical activity burns calories and builds muscles ---both of which help you look and feel good and keep weight off. Walking the family dog, cycling to school, and doing other things that increase your daily level of activity can all make a difference.
One reason people get less exercise these days is because of an increase in “screen time”--- the amount of time spent watching TV, looking at the computer, or playing video games. Limit recreational screen time to less than 2 hours per day. When you really get away from “screens”, such as TV, computers, IPad or mobile phones, you will really benefit a lot.
Portion sizes are bigger than they used to be, and these extra calories contribute to obesity. Another key factor in weight gain is that more people drink sugary drinks, such as sodas, juice drinks, and sports drinks. So choose smaller portions (or share restaurant portions) and go for water or low-fat mild instead of soda.
People who skip breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. So they get more calories than they would have if they ate breakfast. In fact, people who skip breakfast tend to have higher BIMs than people who eat breakfast.
If you really put the above into practice at once, you will definitely reduce your weight gradually. And wish you have a good figure. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

27. You may want to offer help if your friend falls into depression(抑郁)
You may want to offer help if your friend falls into depression(抑郁). Depression is a complex emotional illness and it is necssary to do adequate(充足) research about the illness. You may access anumber of resources to gain a deep understanding of this emotional condition. You can also find books or magazines in the library. If you still have
some questions, you can see a doctor. In the end, you should havea good idea of what is affecting your friend.
People with depression are often very afraid of talking to someone except their doctors. They can easily be ashamed of their condition and consequently they try to hide it. You shouldn’t be surprised if a depressed friend won’t open up to you. However , when he or she does , you should let the words flow. Don’t be judgemental and never interrupt!
Listening is not an easy skill, as it’s likely that you can’t help voicing your opinion.
If your friend shows likely signs of depression, such as the feeling of worthlessness, a lack of interest in daily activities and uncontrolled crying, you should contact a doctor, scheduel an appointment andaccompany him or her on the first visit. If he or she refuses, let several days go by before making another suggestion. You should be able to identify moments when he or she seems to have better moods. These moments could be the right time to ask him or her to see the doctor. Over time, your friend begins to cooperate and see the doctor.
At last, as a caregiver, you also need someone to talk to and perhaps you may join a support group so you can meet other caregivers. You shouldn’t sacrifice your own physical and mental condition when helping people with depression. There are cases when caregivers become depressed. If it happens, there is no shame in seeing a doctor yourself.
