    Default How can you translate "fat hangover" in Spanish?

    Hi all,
    I think this refers to the feeling one gets after eating so much. Do you know a similar expression in Spanish?
    Thanks

    Hi Andrea! I can think of "estoy empachada/o", "estoy asqueada/o de tanto comer" - how does the original sentence read?

    Hola andreap y mvictoria:

    Me da gusto saludarlas.

    Yo nunca había visto/escuchado la expresión "fat hangover", pero coincido con mvictoria.

    Por cierto, en mi región también se dice que la gente se "empacha" cuando consume alimentos -elaborados con harina- que no se cocinaron completamente; o los bebés se "empachan" cuando algún alimento les cae mal.

    Regards,

    Xóchitl

    Miren lo que me encontré por ahí:

    Fat hangover

    July 26, 2011 Urban Word of the Day

    The horrible feeling after indulging on too much food, similar to the hangover of alcohol. Fat hangovers have almost all of the same effects of regular hangovers. Fat hangovers, however, usually occur right after eating or when going to sleep.

    Jimi has a fat hangover from today's food party. He's vomiting all over the sheets and has a major head and stomach ache.

    Creo que es lo que yo llamaría "tremenda indigestión" o "indigestión marca chamuco".

    Gracias por su ayuda. En un principio pensé que "fat hangover" era sólo una sensación de pesadez en el estómago. Pero ahora, por el significado que da Xóchiltl, creo que además incluye enfermarse, vomitar, etc. Así que creo que voy a elegir "indigestión".
    Un saludo!

    Hola andreap:

    Sí, creo que si tomamos la definición de "fat hangover" del diccionario urbano y la comparamos con la definición médica, llegamos a la conclusión de que es lo mismo.

    La indigestión, también conocida como dispepsia, es una sensación de dolor o ardor en la parte superior del abdomen y va generalmente acompañada de náuseas, pesadez o gas, sensación de estar lleno y algunas veces vómitos.

    Es la única definición que encontré respecto al término "fat hangover", así que supongo que es parte del caló de un grupo exclusivo de gente.


    Saludos,

    Xóchitl
