HI! I even didn't know that many people get fat after marriage! But is that only in your country or in many, because in my country I think they are not such a big % of all married people! I think it is because the woman/man cooks more and till then they maybe haven't live together and now ..

Well I guess it's because they feel they don't have to be conscious of their looks because their spouse would accept them however they look. As opposed to when they were single, they'd have to look good so that people would notice them. But that's just a guess.

Married people specially woman becomes fat after marriage. There are many explanations for this. One is that maybe their metabolism slows down. When the metabolism slows down, their are tendency that an individual's weight will increase.
What is metabolism? Metabolism is the process by which the body burns fat and transform these fats into energy,and these energy will be use by the body to do work.
If the metabolism of an individual is fast, then his/her body is fast in burning this fat into energy, thus this individual is an energetic one.
If the metabolism of an individual is slow, then his/her body is slow in burning fats, these fats will stay in the body and more likely this individual is an overweight one.
After marriage, some expert say that the body, more particularly the woman after giving birth, will going to change its metabolic rate from fast to slow. This is one of the reason why they gain weight more and becomes fat.

Two reasons: first, you're home for dinner every night; second, many of them stop trying to be thin and fit to impress their spouse.
