假期的胡吃海塞是否已經(jīng)讓你的腰圍付出代價(jià)了？

長出肚腩的不止你一個(gè)。不過，小肚腩形狀不同，大小各異。連導(dǎo)致小肚腩的原因也不盡相同。

Here's how to work out your tummy①tummy 英 ［'t?m?］ 美 ［'t?m?］ n. 肚子；胃type - and how to target it in 2016.

BLOATED TUMMY

Your tummy is prominent②prominent英 ［'pr?m?n?nt］ 美 ［'prɑm?n?nt］ adj. 突出的，顯著的；杰出的；卓越的③stick out突出；堅(jiān)持；醒目and sticks out③， bulging like a spare tyre or muffin④muffin英 ［'m?f?n］ 美 ［'m?f?n］ n. （涂牛油趁熱吃的）英格蘭松餅，（常含小塊水果等）杯狀小松糕；瑪芬top. Your skin often feels hard to touch， as if there's an inflated balloon deep inside.

What Causes It？

This tummy starts out flat at the start of the day and usually expands as time goes onparticularly after meals. No matter how big it gets， you won't see any change on the scales.

One of the main causes is a build-up of wind. As food gets broken down while it travels through the intestines⑤intestine英 ［?n'test?n］ 美 ［?n't?st?n］ adj. 內(nèi)部的；國內(nèi)的n. 腸， the bacteria that feed on it create up to six to eight litres⑥litre 英 ［'li?t?］ n. ［計(jì)量］ 公升（米制容量單位）of gas as a by-product.

However， if the bugs in your gut have difficulty breaking down certain foods， it will also start to ferment， creating more wind， which starts to push the abdominal⑦abdominal 英 ［?b'd?m?n（?）l］ 美 ［?b'dɑm?nl］ adj. 腹部的；有腹鰭的wall outwards.

Obesity surgeon Professor Basil Ammori， of the Salford Royal Hospital， says constipation and eating too much in one go can also create this effect.

STRESS TUMMY

What Does It Look Like？

This tummy sticks out at the front but it is softer and more saggy than a pot belly. It often starts under your bust and forms a soft roll - or a muffin top - which hangs over your waistband.

What Causes It？Dr Marilyn Glenville， author of Fat Around the Middle says：‘In stressful situations， the fightor-flight hormone cortisol helps release sugar into the bloodstream so your body has the energy to escape or defend itself.

‘But unless you do something physical， as your body is expecting you to， all that extra energy has nowhere to go. So it is simply redeposited as fat.

以下是各種小肚腩的類型和治理辦法，2016年讓我們甩掉小肚腩。

脹氣肚

外觀

腹部明顯凸出，腰上的“游泳圈”清晰可見。你常常會(huì)感到腹脹難忍，仿佛吞下了一只氣球。

成因

空腹時(shí)，你看不見小肚腩。但進(jìn)食后，肚子越脹越大。不過，不管肚子脹得有多大，你的體重依然不變。

造成這種肚腩的“幕后黑手”就是胃腸氣。當(dāng)食物經(jīng)過腸道，體內(nèi)的細(xì)菌便開始作用，分解殘?jiān)?，同時(shí)產(chǎn)生6至8升的氣體。

然而，如果胃腸內(nèi)細(xì)菌無法分解某些食物，就會(huì)開始發(fā)酵，還會(huì)產(chǎn)生更多的氣體。無怪乎肚子會(huì)越來越大了。

索爾福德皇家醫(yī)院的減肥醫(yī)生巴茲爾·安蒙里稱，便秘問題以及暴飲暴食都會(huì)導(dǎo)致腸胃脹氣。

壓力肚

外觀

壓力過大而導(dǎo)致的小肚腩向前凸起，卻不如啤酒肚硬挺。這種小肚腩往往從胸部下方開始，像軟面包一樣掛在腰際。

成因

《肚腩解密》的作者瑪麗琳·格倫維爾博士稱：“人在高壓力環(huán)境下，會(huì)觸發(fā)‘戰(zhàn)或逃’反應(yīng)，身體會(huì)釋放一種名為皮質(zhì)醇的激素，幫助往血液中釋放糖分，讓身體有足夠的能量應(yīng)對(duì)危機(jī)。
