Como dizer "Fechar a boca (comer menos)" em inglês
Galera,
Eu estava dando aula sobre a estrutura "to be + supposed to" e meus alunos perguntaram como dizer fechar a boca no sentido de que, para emagrecer, você precisa fechar a boca. Pesquisei e não encontrei nada convincente dentro do contexto.
Desde já, muito obrigado.

Bons estudos!
