대체로 컴퓨터를 장시간 사용할 경우 운동부족으로 비만을 불러오는 주장이 있다.

하지만 미국 미시간주에 사는 51세의 낸시 매킨이라는 여성은 인터넷 다이어트로 무려

240kg의 살을 뺐다고 한다.

한때 그녀의 몸무게는 319kg에 이를 정도로 엄청난 비만이어서 자신의 아파트에서만

지내던 도시속의 로빈슨 크루소였다.

지난 12년 동안 집 밖을 나간게 8번뿐이었다던 그녀

하지만 한 친척이 인터넷을 가르쳐 준뒤로 그녀의 생활이 변하기 시작했다고

직접 사람을 만날 수는 없었지만 채팅을 통해서 쉽게 친구를 사귀기 시작한 그녀

그러면서 자연스럽게 음식을 멀리하게 되었다고 한다.

그동안은 음식 먹는 것이 취미였지만 이제는 인터넷이 그걸 대신해주기 때문에

3년 만에 엄청난 다이어트를 한 그녀 최근에 오프라 윈프리 쇼에 출연해서

삶의 변화를 바라는 사람들에게 용기를 북돋워주는 조언을 해주었다고 한다.

앞으로 사람들에게 동기를 부여하는 연설가가 되는 것이 꿈이라는 그녀

그녀의 삶 자체가 동기부여가 되지 않을까 한다.

rough translation xD

대체로 컴퓨터를 장시간 사용할 경우 운동부족으로 비만을 불러오는 주장이 있다.
The popular opinion is that people become obese when they go on the computer for long periods of time due to lack of exercise.
하지만 미국 미시간주에 사는 51세의 낸시 매킨이라는 여성은 인터넷 다이어트로 무려 240kg의 살을 뺐다고 한다.
However, 51 year old Nancy Mankin(not sure of spelling) from Michigan lost 240kg through the Internet.
한때 그녀의 몸무게는 319kg에 이를 정도로 엄청난 비만이어서 자신의 아파트에서만 지내던 도시속의 로빈슨 크루소였다.
Because she weighed 319kg, she used to stay in her apartment, like a urban Robin Crusoe(not sure of spelling again x3 it's the fictional character who got stuck on a island)
지난 12년 동안 집 밖을 나간게 8번뿐이었다던 그녀 하지만 한 친척이 인터넷을 가르쳐 준뒤로 그녀의 생활이 변하기 시작했고 직접 사람을 만날 수는 없었지만 채팅을 통해서 쉽게 친구를 사귀기 시작한 그녀
She only went out of her house 8 times in 12 years, but after one relative taught her about the Internet, her life started changing; although she didn't meet them in real life, she could make a lot of friends through chatting on the Internet.
그러면서 자연스럽게 음식을 멀리하게 되었다고 한다.
She says that after this, she naturally started eating less.
그동안은 음식 먹는 것이 취미였지만 이제는 인터넷이 그걸 대신해주기 때문에 3년 만에 엄청난 다이어트를 한 그녀 최근에 오프라 윈프리 쇼에 출연해서 삶의 변화를 바라는 사람들에게 용기를 북돋워주는 조언을 해주었다고 한다.
Before, her hobby was eating, but the Internet replaced it. She recently came onto the Oprah show and gave advice to encourage those who wanted to change their lives.

Whoa so this girl lost weight by changing her hobby from eating to the internet? That's really strange. I thought people who spend too much time on the computer gain more weight from not exercising. But I guess this girl just didn't eat as much?

ROFL. So does that basically mean ..
Instead of eating, they go on the internet?
They're losing weight .. but they're also damaging their eyesight

haha actually, when I was younger and just started going online, I got so skinny. All I wanted to do was go online and chat, so I lost my appetite and didn't care much for food. In one day, I probably just ate a little snack. That lasted no longer than a year. Then I got older...and chatting got old..lol


I mean it's great that she lost weight by meeting people online and stuff......but c'mon, just freakin eat healthier and be more active. It can't be that hard if you want to lose weight that bad.
