Six Reasons Women Gain Weight After Wedding
It is generally known that women gain weight immediately after they are settled in a marriage. Here are six reasons women add weight after wedding.
Change in eating habit
Perhaps the first thing a newly married woman has to do is to cook for her new family. Your body is used to a certain style of cooking in terms of the spices used, the taste, etc. But you are likely to change this to impress your in-laws and hubby and adopt their cooking methods.
Your body reacts to this by altering your digestive pattern. And if it is an inter-cultural marriage, you perhaps have to change your food habits completely. All these changes cause weight gain.
Eating in- between meal
As a newly marriage woman, more often than not, at least one of your meals is outside food which is often rich in calories and low in nutrition. And saying no to these invites is usually not an option. All these soon reflect on your waistline.
Change in priority
Managing work, household chores, kids, etc. coupled with a hazy eating pattern can leave you feeling exhausted. Women are likely to indulge in cravings for the lack of satisfaction from meals and gain weight after marriage.
Caring less
Women often after wedding let go many things and do not bother much about their bodies or fitness. Gym hour is replaced by cooking hour and diet as we mentioned goes for a toss. All these changes make you put on weight post marriage.
Loss of diet
Marriage is always accompanied with a diet that may not agree with your previous one. So, you may gorge on calories which do not give your body the essential nutrients. This results in deficiency of vitamin B, calcium, etc. leading to cravings at odd hours and lack of energy. And you wonder why you have suddenly put on 5 kilos
Pregnancy
One of the effects of marriage is pregnancy which obviously comes with putting on of weight.
