So I finished. And I kind of went overboard on the week after the project was over. 我于是停止了这些健康计划。健康计划中止后的一周，我让自己稍微放纵了一下，
I went to the dark side, and I just indulged myself. It was like something out of Caligula. 开始了不健康的生活方式，尽情放任自己，有点像《罗马帝国艳情史》里那样。
Without the sex part. Because I have three young kids, so that wasn't happening. 当然这里可没有关于性的部分，因为我已经有三个孩子了。
But the over-eating and over-drinking, definitely. And I finally have stabilized 1. 因此不是你想的那样，不过大吃大喝是肯定要有的，最后就稳定下来了。
So now I'm back to adopting many -- not all; 我保留了许多过去一年中尝试过的方法--当然不是全部，
I don't wear a helmet anymore -- but dozens of healthy behaviors that I adopted during my year. 我再也不带头盔了，但是还是保留了不少健康的生活习惯。
It was really a life-changing project. And I, of course, don't have time to go into all of them. 这真是个能够改变生活的计划，当然，我没有足够的时间去逐个体验。
Let me just tell you two really quickly. 我只简单告诉大家两件事。
The first is -- and this was surprising to me; I didn't expect this to come out -- but I live a much quieter life now. 首先是--一件让我感到惊讶的事情，我之前并没有抱这个期望--但现在我却有了一个更安静的生活。
Because we live in such a noisy world. There's trains and planes and cars and Bill O'Reilly, he's very noisy. 我们生活在一个嘈杂的世界，充斥着火车、飞机、汽车，和比尔·奥雷利（美国时事评论员），他吵死了。
And this is a real underestimated, under-appreciated health hazard -- not just because it harms our hearing, 这的确是一个被低估、被忽视的健康隐患--不仅仅是因为它有损听力，
which it obviously does, but it actually initiates 2 the fight-or-flight response. 这点是毫无疑问的，它实际上还会让人产生“攻击或逃离”这个心理应急机制。
A loud noise will get your fight-or-flight response going. 高分贝噪声会让你启动应急机制。
And this, over the years, can cause real damage, cardiovascular damage. 这样持续数年会造成真正的损伤，心血管损伤。
1 stabilized
v.（使）稳定， （使）稳固( stabilize的过去式和过去分词 )
- The patient's condition stabilized. 患者的病情稳定下来。
- His blood pressure has stabilized. 他的血压已经稳定下来了。 来自《现代英汉综合大词典》
