要減肥，富含高纖維和熱量低的新鮮蔬菜絕對是飲食好幫手，但對那些只愛碳水化合物的“主食控”和無肉不歡的“食肉動物”來說，提起這些嚼之無味的“雜草”就頭大。憋急，先找一種能接受的“入門蔬菜”吃吃看，也許你因此而改變觀念也說不定呢。

Gateway vegetable refers to a palatable vegetable that encourages more adventurous vegetable consumption.
“入門蔬菜”是指一種美味可口的蔬菜，吃它能激勵人們更大膽地嘗試吃其他蔬菜。

Healthy eating and weight loss requires vegetables. There's no way around it. Some of us though would rather fill our plates with meat and bread. If you discover a "gateway vegetable" you'll start eating them more often.
健康飲食和減肥都離不開蔬菜。這是無法回避的事實。雖然有些人，還是愿意用肉和面包把盤子填滿。如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)一種“入門蔬菜”，就會開始更經(jīng)常吃菜了。

Experts suggest finding one vegetable to introduce into your diet if you're a vegetable hater.
專家建議，如果你討厭吃菜，找一種蔬菜引入你的日常飲食中。

Once you find that one vegetable you like, you can branch out from there. It's a way of changing a small eating habit and recognizing that you don't have to stick to your belief that you'll never eat vegetables.
一旦你找到一種你喜歡的蔬菜，從此就可以開始吃很多種蔬菜。這是一種方法，借由改變一種小的飲食習慣，從而發(fā)現(xiàn)你不必固守自己永遠不吃菜的理念。

Preparation matters too: try grilling them instead of boiling or steaming.
準備工作也很重要：試試烤菜，不要煮或蒸菜。

還等什么，想減肥又不愛吃菜的“主食控”和“食肉動物”趕緊行動起來，從尋找自己的“入門蔬菜”開始吧！
