Marriage, Divorce Make You Fat

Researchers at the Ohio State University have found that women tend to put on weight after getting married (even after accounting for weight gain associated with pregnancy), and men tend to do so after getting divorced.
To account for the phenomenon, the researchers told Fox News that they believe women may not have the same opportunities to exercise after getting married as before, while divorced men, newly freed from healthy home-cooked meals and spousal oversight of personal habits, tend to indulge their pent-up beer-and-pizza cravings to excess.
Sounds like a great basis for twin new diet fads: the Wedding Diet for women (“Just say no when he proposes…”) and the Divorce Diet for guys (“Stay Hitched and Stay Slim!”)
