你最近好像瘦了点，是不是在减肥呢？
nǐ zuìjìn hǎoxiàng shòu le diǎn, shì bu shì zài jiǎnféi ne?
You seem to have lost a bit of weight recently. Are you on a diet?
W
对啊，我上个月开始去健身房，一周去三次。
duì a, wǒ shàng ge yuè kāishǐ qù jiànshēnfáng, yì zhōu qù sān cì.
Yeah, I started going to the gym last month, three times a week.
L
真厉害！那你主要做什么运动啊？
zhēn lìhài! nà nǐ zhǔyào zuò shénme yùndòng a?
That's impressive! So what kind of exercise do you mainly do?
W
我先跑半个小时步，然后再做点力量训练。
wǒ xiān pǎo bàn ge xiǎoshí bù, ránhòu zài zuò diǎn lìliàng xùnliàn.
I run for half an hour first, then do some strength training.

光运动够吗？听说减肥主要还是得靠吃。
guāng yùndòng gòu ma? tīngshuō jiǎnféi zhǔyào háishì děi kào chī.
Is exercise alone enough? I heard losing weight mainly depends on diet.
W
你说得对，所以我最近也在注意饮食。
nǐ shuō de duì, suǒyǐ wǒ zuìjìn yě zài zhùyì yǐnshí.
You're right, so lately I've also been watching what I eat.
L
那你午饭一般吃什么？看你今天带的挺清淡的。
nà nǐ wǔfàn yìbān chī shénme? kàn nǐ jīntiān dài de tǐng qīngdàn de.
So what do you usually eat for lunch? What you brought today looks pretty light.
W
主要是鸡胸肉配蔬菜，再加一点糙米饭。
zhǔyào shì jīxiōngròu pèi shūcài, zài jiā yìdiǎn cāomǐfàn.
Mainly chicken breast with vegetables, plus a little brown rice.
L
听起来挺健康的，可你不会觉得没味道吗？
tīng qǐlái tǐng jiànkāng de, kě nǐ bù huì juéde méi wèidào ma?
That sounds healthy, but don't you find it tasteless?
W
刚开始是有点，不过习惯了就好了，而且现在感觉身体轻松多了。
gāng kāishǐ shì yǒudiǎn, búguò xíguàn le jiù hǎo le, érqiě xiànzài gǎnjué shēntǐ qīngsōng duō le.
At first it was a bit, but once you get used to it it's fine, and now my body feels much lighter.
L
那我也想试试，你能不能给我推荐个健身房？
nà wǒ yě xiǎng shìshi, nǐ néng bu néng gěi wǒ tuījiàn ge jiànshēnfáng?
Then I'd like to give it a try too. Could you recommend a gym to me?
W
没问题，公司附近就有一家，下班我带你去看看吧。
méi wèntí, gōngsī fùjìn jiù yǒu yì jiā, xiàbān wǒ dài nǐ qù kànkan ba.
No problem, there's one right near the office. After work I'll take you to check it out.
