圣誕和新年是大家盡情放松、大吃大喝的時節，結果過完節不少人發現，自己的腰圍長了不少，節前穿著很合身的衣服，現在穿著竟有些緊了，這就是Christmas tight——圣誕縮水。
The period of time after Christmas and New Years where the clothes you wore prior to the holidays that fit well, all of a sudden are a little tighter than they should be, which is called “Christmas tight”.
在圣誕節和新年之前穿著很合身的衣服，在過完節后再穿忽然變緊了，這就叫“圣誕縮水”。
“Christmas tight” happens because there is so much delicious food during the big holidays, and you just cannot help yourselves. Therefore you put on weight in a few days.
發生“圣誕縮水”是因為在這種盛大的節日里美味的食物太多了，你忍不住狂吃。結果幾天內體重就增長了不少。
Example:
"I got this new dress shirt for Christmas. I went to wear it with my favorite work pants, but they are a little Christmas tight now."
“我圣誕節收到了這件新襯衫。我把它和我最喜歡的工作褲一起搭著穿，但是這褲子現在有點‘圣誕縮水’了。”
