Why women often gain weight when they are in a committed relationship
Coming up on the 25th wedding anniversary, one may ponder all that has taken place of the last quarter century. Do you wonder if there is any way your body would fit back into that wedding dress? How about those tight fitting jeans that got the attention of your spouse in the first place? Most likely, the answers to those questions are a giant NO!
Unfortunately, after being in the relationship for a few years, your priorities will change dramatically. Gone will be the days of you looking into the mirror wondering if he will like that new dress or better yet, how good your body looks in that dress. This time will be spent instead of wondering how to pay the bill for the hot water heater that you had to replace or running your children to and fro from various sporting, school, music, and who knows what all else activities. That is right. Once you have married and you have children, there is no time in the schedule for yourself. Your family becomes your number one priority, your reason for living, your reason for working. A Woman wants more than anything does for their children to have happy pleasant memories of their growing up years, and she will go way out on a limb to achieve that.
This will start with the moment of birth. Making sure everything in the nursery is just so. Birthday parties have to be top notch with all family members in attendance. Preschool ages bring the beginning of a sports career or music lessons. It all just balloons from there. There is absolutely no time in the day to schedule exercise, to plan healthy meals or worry about getting ones hair done. Gosh at this point, getting a haircut itself is a luxury
Before long, your running around in sweatpants so much, you do not even notice the additional inch that your waistline grew. When shopping for clothing, your grabbing what is comfortable without so much as a thought as to how tight the waist was the last time you wore your jeans, and at the same time, you’re grabbing the next size larger.
Another item that comes into play will be the relationship with your spouse. Yep, after the honeymoon period is over, there may still be a few years where you both cannot keep your hands off the other. After that, its more like when your both so exhausted at the end of the day, you find your actually going to bed at the same time for once. At this point, who cares what they look like; you just put in an eighteen-hour day. From then on, you really do start to take for granted that your spouse do not care what you look like and give up on yourself as well.
Seriously, in the end, as long as you are healthy, energetic, and provide your significant other with the support they need, gaining a little weight is not that serious of an infraction. The children will be grown and gone soon enough and your finances do tend to improve at that point as well. One finds plenty of time on their hands at this point in life and are free, able and ready to join a gym, take a healthy cooking class, and finally start dating their spouse again. Yes indeed. Go get that trendy haircut, buy that new dress because Momma, it is all about you, again!
