《中英對照讀新聞》Half-ton Mexican man loses 200 pounds 半噸墨西哥男子減去200磅

◎魏國金

Health officials said Manuel Uribe weighed 1,235 pounds when he made a desperate plea for help on national television in January.

Unable to leave his bed for five years, the 41-year-old mechanic in the northern industrial city of Monterrey longed to move again.

衛生官員指出,當曼紐.烏利貝一月間在全國電視上懇求協助時,他重達1,235磅(560公斤)。無法離床長達5年,這名住在東部工業城蒙特雷的41歲技工渴望能再度移動。

His plea was answered by doctors and nutritionists who prescribed a high-protein diet, helping him lose about 200 pounds since then. Gilberto Montiel, health secretary for Nuevo Leon state, said medical officials have been monitoring Uribe's weight and confirmed the loss.

他的請求獲得醫師與營養師的回應,他們開出高蛋白飲食,從那時起幫助他甩掉了200磅。新里昂州衛生部長吉貝托.孟提耶說,醫藥官員監控烏利貝的體重,並證實這項減重結果。

"I feel better now, I can stretch and move a bit more," Uribe said , flanked by Dr. Barry Sears, creator of "The Zone" diet, who came to check on his progress. Still, Uribe said he has just enough energy to sit up and move the sheet that covers his body. His goal is to lose another 770 pounds.

「我現在覺得比較好,我能夠多伸展、移動身體一點。」烏利貝說,在他旁邊的是「區域」飲食法的發明者貝里.席爾斯博士,他前來檢查他的進展。儘管如此,烏利貝說他只有力氣坐起來,移動蓋在身上的被單。他的目標是再減770磅(349公斤)。

Uribe was a chubby kid, weighing more than 250 pounds as an adolescent. Starting in 1992, he said, his weight began ballooning further. For the last five years, Uribe has been bedridden. He keeps a television and a computer he uses to update his Web site near his iron bed.

烏利貝以前就是胖小孩,青少年時體重就超過250磅(113公斤)。他說,從1992年開始,他的體重開始激增。過去5年,烏利貝臥床不起。他的鐵床邊有一台電視、一台他用來更新其網站的電腦。
