Women tend to eat more calories and fat when dining out, regardless of what their usual eating habits are, new research suggests.
新研究顯示，女性外食時傾向吃更多卡路里與脂肪，不管她們平常的飲食習慣如何。
The study, which included both binge-eaters and dieters, found that both groups of women ate out frequently -- and downed between 200 and 300 extra calories a day in the process.
這份對象涵蓋暴飲暴食者與節食者的研究，發現兩種族群的女性都常外食，而且在過程中，一天多吃下200到300卡路里。
Moreover, women who were prone to binge-eating problems often overindulged when eating out, according to findings published in the Western Journal of Nursing Research.
此外，這份刊登在西方營養學研究期刊的研究發現，有暴飲暴食傾向的女性，常在外食時過分放縱。
Many experts have pointed to Americans' love of dining out as a potential reason for the nation's ever-expanding waistline. Fast food, as well as the hefty portion sizes at restaurants in general, catch much of the blame.
許多專家指出，美國人喜愛外食，是這個國家的國民腰圍日漸擴張的一項潛在原因。速食，以及一般餐廳的大份量餐點，最為人詬病。
Dieters and binge-eaters alike ate 200 to 300 extra calories, as well as 10 to 16 extra grams of fat, on days when they dined out.
節食者與暴飲暴食者都一樣，在她們外食的日子裡，會多吃200到300額外的卡路里，以及10到16公克額外的脂肪。
