Wow, I'm really getting fat.

Aii, ka thau tuk thlang si maw.

You don't look fat.

Mi thau na bang lo.

Yes, but I am. I've gained 10 pounds in the last two months. Look at my stomach.

Bang lo nan ka thau si hi. Kan dung thla hnih sungah pound 10 ka beet si ih. Ka pum hi zoh hnik

How much do you weigh?

Na rit lam ziatzat si?

I think about 170 pounds.

Pound 170 hrawng ka si ding.

What kind of foods do you eat?

Ziang vek rawl si na ei?

I usually have pasta for dinner. Sometimes I get take-out or fast food if I don't have enough time to cook.

Zanriah ah pasta ka ei tlangpi. A can can rawl suan can ka neih loh ahcun dawr ta ka lei theu.

I was reading a diet book the other day. It said that if you eat meat and nothing else, you'll lose weight quickly.

Kan dung naite ah rawl ei dan ka siar. Cui cabu ih sim mi cu sa lawng kan ei ih thil dang kan ei lo ahcun kan tawl lohli ding.

Wow, does that work?

Aii, a cang thei ngai kem?

I don't know, but someone told me they tried it and lost 20 pounds.

Ka thei lo nan zo si maw in I sim an tuah sin ih pound 20 an hlon thei.

That sounds good, but I'm not sure how long I could do that.

A va tha zik ve, sinan ziang tiang ka thei tuah thei ding ka thei lo.

I know, once you start eating vegetables and bread again you'll probably start gaining weight.

Ka thei, thlaihnak - rah le paw hmuk na ei thok sal in na thau sal ding.

Well, I think I'm going to try it anyway. Who's the author?

Aw, ziang khal a va si sehla ka saan sin tho tho ding. Zoha cabu ngantu?

I can't remember. It's not that popular anymore. When I get home I'll check and give you a call.

Ka va cing lo ve. A lar tuk nawn lo. Inn ka thlen in ka zoh sal kei ka lo phone ding.
