DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Shedding weight is as good as gold under an unusual slim-down initiative in Dubai over growing concerns about rising obesity levels in the wealthy Gulf city-state.
迪拜,阿聯(lián)酋—隨著迪拜這個(gè)富裕的海灣城市日漸引人關(guān)心的肥胖問(wèn)題,迪拜推出減肥和獲得黃金一樣好的創(chuàng)意。
Municipal officials are offering a gram of gold worth about $45 at current prices for each kilogram of weight lost in a 30-day challenge. The minimum drop is two kilograms, or 4.4 pounds, to cash in.
市政官員將提供一克黃金—目前價(jià)值大約45美元—給予在30天挑戰(zhàn)內(nèi)每減肥1公斤者。減肥下限是2公斤,或4.4磅,以兌現(xiàn)黃金。
Local media Wednesday quotes Dubai official Hussain Lootah as saying there is no limit on the payout for the golden losers, who must sign up and weigh in Friday.
當(dāng)?shù)孛襟w周三引用迪拜官員Hussain Lootah的話說(shuō),對(duì)于減肥者的黃金獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)支出什么上限,這些減肥者必須在周五登記稱重。
The plan is the latest attempt to encourage healthier lifestyles in the United Arab Emirates. Across the Gulf Arab states, authorities have raised alarms about rising obesity from increasing fast-food diets and lack of exercise.
該計(jì)劃是阿聯(lián)酋最新的鼓勵(lì)更健康生活方式的嘗試。在這個(gè)海灣國(guó)家,政府對(duì)由引用快餐盒缺乏鍛煉而上漲的肥胖率拉響了警報(bào)。

What happens after the oil is gone in another 50 or 100 years or so? Or what happens when oil is replaced by a more efficient form of energy?
Oh never mind ... they will go back to raising camels.
當(dāng)再過(guò)50或100年石油用光了怎么辦?或者當(dāng)時(shí)有被更有效的能源替代后怎么辦?
不過(guò)沒(méi)關(guān)系,他們能繼續(xù)回到養(yǎng)駱駝的時(shí)代

Dubai drew revenue from being a major port city before oil was discovered.
There was no raising of Camels
迪拜在發(fā)現(xiàn)石油前就靠主要的海港城市賺錢
他們不養(yǎng)駱駝

From some one who has lived in a gulf state it's a poor mix of climate and easy access to food that causes this problem. It's hard to exercise consistently when it's 120 degrees in the shade and there is a K F C or McDonald's on every corner.
Hopefully this initiative has results for them don't know if it would work in America though.
作為在海灣國(guó)家生活過(guò)的人,是多變的氣候以及容易獲取食物導(dǎo)致了這個(gè)問(wèn)題。樹(shù)蔭下120度的情況下也很難運(yùn)動(dòng),每一個(gè)角落都有KFC和麥當(dāng)勞
希望這個(gè)舉措對(duì)他們有效,不知道是否在美國(guó)也有用

so true!! when we first went to the ksa, there was one national "fast food" burger place and it was rare to see an obese Saudi. by the time we left, pizza hut, mcdonalds, burger king, etc. were unavoidable. health issues like diabetes 2, hypertension, heart disease, came along with obvious obesity. it was sad to see a generally healthy population eat themselves into poor nutrition and bad health.
太對(duì)了!當(dāng)我第一次來(lái)到沙特阿拉伯時(shí),有一個(gè)全國(guó)的快餐漢堡地,不肥胖的阿拉伯人很罕見(jiàn),當(dāng)我們離開(kāi)時(shí),必勝客,麥當(dāng)勞,漢堡王等是不可避免的,還有糖尿病,高血壓心臟病等明顯的肥胖疾病?吹接绣X的人把自己吃的缺乏營(yíng)養(yǎng)和身體差很悲哀。

This could work in America, but Americans would probably just end up eating the gold.

Actually, it's way more efficient to turn the gold in for pizza and soda.

Why don't they just ban the fast food companies that are behind the obesity epidemic?

HUFFPOST COMMUNITY MODERATOR
The natives of Dubai do absolutely no thing for themselves. They have servants and employees to do every thing for them, and they rarely avail themselves of the myriad of outdoor activities they have created. Women, especially can not use the pools and participate in activities because of their strict codes for Dubai women on clothing and most women of the Gulf and other areas where they are restricted and must wear total body covering or are restricted to their homes have fairly severe Vitamin D deficiencies, as well.
迪拜基本不為自己考慮,他們有為自己做事的仆人和雇傭者,他們基本不從創(chuàng)造的戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)中受益,女人特別不能使用游泳池和參加運(yùn)動(dòng),因?yàn)榈习輰?duì)女人衣著有嚴(yán)格的規(guī)定,海灣一些國(guó)家限制要求女性必須穿能把自己全身都包起來(lái)的衣服,并要求女性呆在家中,導(dǎo)致他們嚴(yán)重缺乏維他命D

That's really nice. We should bring that program to U S A. The money put into the program, could very well be money we save in healthcare related issues like heart failures and high pressure. It's money well spent.
這真的不錯(cuò),我們應(yīng)該把這個(gè)項(xiàng)目帶到美國(guó)來(lái),這些項(xiàng)目的錢可以是我們從醫(yī)保相關(guān)的問(wèn)題中節(jié)省下來(lái)的錢,比如心力衰竭和高血壓等,這個(gè)錢用的才到位

I would make my slaves go on the diet. They would eat lettuce like iguanas. I would be nice though. I would allow them to take turns dieting. That way it would be like a long term investment plan.

Stop blaming American fast food. The local people in Dubai hardly eat it. They eat their food, kebabs, felafel, etc etc. All that lamb is fatty. The difference isn't fast food chains, its an abundance of food and an economy that has shifted away from fishing and diving for pearls.
不要責(zé)怪美國(guó)的快餐了,迪拜當(dāng)?shù)厝撕苌俪钥觳,他們有自己的食物,烤肉串,炸豆丸子等等。那些羊肉都是多脂肪的。?wèn)題不是快餐連鎖店,而是那里食品富足,經(jīng)濟(jì)形式也從捕魚(yú)轉(zhuǎn)向了潛水尋找珍珠。
