People with A Partner Weigh Almost 6 Kilos More than Those Who Are Single, That's Why We're Fat

It's not that men are fat because we want to; Having a beautiful belly is the side effect of being in love and enjoying a happy life as a couple.

It is not about any myth; Having a partner gets fatter and more than one scientific study has proven it. Although genetics has a lot to do with having a few extra kilos, research says that also being single does not affect your weight.

Women Who Divorce Take 10 Years Off: Study

The study was conducted at the Central University of Queensland in Australia and had the help of 15,000 student volunteers. For 10 years, the research followed the participants and recorded a lot of information about their lifestyle.

According to the author of the study, Stephanie Schoeppe, the volunteers answered questions about their eating habits, exercise, work, hobbies and whether or not they had a partner. After gathering all the information, the analysis linked weight and singleness.

The result was that single people weigh on average 5.8 kilos less compared to those who have a partner. Schoeppe says that this happens because having a stable relationship, people stop taking care of their figure to impress their partner.

When they barely have the first dates, people take care not to eat too much and there are even those who exercise to have an attractive physique. But by getting a couple, people leave those healthy habits and give free rein to their cravings.

Another study done by Dr. Jeric Berge of the University of Minnesota in the United States, added that couples become more sedentary. They do not go out so often to go for a walk anymore and rather they spend their time watching movies and series. Does that sound familiar?

And speaking of that, the studies also show that couples usually go to more convivial with their relatives, which means only one thing: food in abundance every Sunday. To this you also have to add the scientifically proven fact that men gain weight when they become dads .

So remember: it is not that they are obese, but that they are in love and have the best life as a couple. That huge belly is the clearest sign that they are full of love.
