Today weight gain is a biggest problem among women and this problem is mostly found in Indian women after marriage. According to a study, above 80% of couples accumulate more weight after 5 years of their marriage and out of them most of the women have more weight.
Initially people may not get worried of it, but if the weight gain is more and you fail to reduce, it becomes a big problem. As your weight increases, you may not be able to wear your favorite dresses anymore and you feel uncomfortable to move freely in the public or in any family functions.
Moreover, overweight becomes the cause of many diseases like heart attacks, blood pressure, strokes, back pain, leg pain and many more. There are so many reasons behind the weight gain of women after marriage.
1. Hormone changes
Hormone change is a main cause behind weight gain. After marriage the lifestyle of women completely changes and this gives rise to the hormonal changes among women. Sex is another cause of hormone change. Therefore weight gain occurs among women.
2. Food habit of women changes after marriage
Before marriage most of the women remain very cautious in taking food to avoid weight gain and keep up with a good physique. But, suddenly after marriage the complete life style of girls changes. In India, a woman has to adopt the food habit and time schedule of her husband’s house. If these foods are oily and rich in fat and sugar, then you can easily gain weight rapidly. Most of the time the new daughter-in -law is pampered by her new family members and they force to eat different things. So she gains weight.
3. Age

4. Lack of time for self maintenance
After going to a new place and living with new family members, women always try to satisfy her husband and other family members by preparing different food items and giving priority to other family members.

5. After pregnancy weight increases
When women get pregnant, they have to eat lots of healthy and nutritious foods and they also take so many medicines including vitamins and irons. Thus women would put on a lot of weight in 9 months. After delivery she also has to take healthy foods as she feeds the baby and by taking the care of a new born baby she may not get enough time to take care of her own. So the weight gain continues to stay with her.
6. Lack of sleep
After marriage, the total life style of a girl changes. The duration of sleep and its pattern changes after marriage. Many women do not get enough time to sleep properly after giving birth to a baby. So lack of sleeping is another reason of weight gain.
