How to avoid postprandial fat accumulation

[Kelly2]

我现在的工作让我每天午饭后必须立即躺在床上休息一个小时。我该如何避免这种情况呢？

Anyone else have to look up “postprandial”?

Translation… “My current job requires me to lie in bed for an hour immediately after lunch every day. How can I avoid this?”

What job lets you take an hour long nap after lunch everyday? Do you get paid, and where can I send my resumé?

 

[Kelly2]

What I mean is that if I don't take a nap, then my work state in the afternoon will be very low, so I have to take a nap immediately to get enough sleep.

我不想牺牲我的休息时间，但是这种情况会导致我的腹部脂肪越来越多。

Yes, that is indeed the translation:

I don't want to sacrifice my rest time, but this situation will cause me to gain more and more belly fat.

So you probably have sleep apnea?

I feel like this is potentially a more cultural question?

Are you required to take a nap, or is it encouraged? If you took that time to say, walk around the facility in laps, would that be looked down upon? In my workplace, certain departments take break at the same time, and have a designated route to walk that includes stairs and brief periods outdoors. Is that possible for you? To take a walk instead of sleeping?

我觉得这可能是一个更具文化性的问题？

午睡是被要求的吗，还是公司鼓励你午睡？如果你利用午睡时间在设施内走几圈，会不会遭到鄙视？在我的工作场所，某些部门会同时休息，并有指定的行走路线，包括爬楼梯和短暂的户外时间。这对你来说可能吗？用散步代替睡觉？

不是强制的，但是我担心下午没精神，所以想多睡一会儿。如果时间充裕的话，我可能不会立刻躺下，但午休时间只有一个半小时，吃完饭就剩一个小时，所以实际的睡眠时间可能只有40分钟

I hope you're ok with me translating in a screenshot like this so everyone can follow the conversation!

Rest is actually very important for losing weight. While you sleep, you actually exhale carbon dioxide, which is a product of your body losing fat. You also exhale water and acetone while losing weight! If you don't get good sleep, it's much harder for your body to dispose of fat.

Do you have a desk job, or are you very mobile? We aren't used to breaks like yours, so how we behave to lose weight may be very different from what works for you.
