Is Your Partner Making You Fat?

Is your partner making you fat? A lot of us get comfortable in a relationship and can put on 10 to 15 lbs within the first 2 years. It’s easy to do so when you spend a lot of time together, go out to eat on the weekends, drink together, etc.

 Here are a few helpful tips to help save your weight before it breaks your relationship!

1.Try different foods together. Try cooking healthy meals together and experimenting with healthier options. Also, us women are generally shorter and weigh less than men which means we need to cut our portions way less than our significant other. 

2.You can be together but don’t always EAT together. Every time your partner eats or snacks, doesn’t mean you have to as well. Sometimes we eat if we see someone else eating and not because we are hungry. Eat when it is comfortable for you. 

3.Break out of the rut. It’s easy once you have been dating a while or married for some time to spend your free time going to the movies which means snacking extra, going out for ice cream, or having a late night snack. How about suggesting spending your alone time going for a walk, a bike ride, rock climbing, something active? 

4.Focus on your love life and ignore being tired! Your love life is so important and helps control your weight gain. It is actually proven, an active sex life leads to shedding those extra pounds.
