Anybody know why, This is a pattern almost in anyone's life. What is the reason behind it?

After marriage there are a lot of changes in our physical and mental being. Firstly there are hormonal changes, then there is the joy of marriage, relaxation and happiness in the relationship and also the tensions sometimes, which are responsible for people gaining weight after marriage. Very often women put on weight after marriage because they start cooking food of their choice or in trying not to waste what is cooked. Pregnancy and having children is a very important reason for putting on weight by women. Men put on weight because their wives cook good food of their choice or they often go out for dinner to celebrate their married lives. I think these are the main reasons why people get fat after marriage.

its because they get lot of social events where they tend to eat more. also getting married makes them get careless about their looks.additional responsibilities provide less time for themselves.

For some of my friends that I have asked, they say it's because they have no time to get back in shape once you take care of a child. If the couple does not have a child yet, it's because they already know that someone loves them and so they do not mind getting themselves fat anymore. They are reminded of their vows so they know the significant other will accept them even if they go fat.

A lot of time, you focus on the other person rather than yourself. And the time that you used to spend taking care of yourself, is now spend taking care of them, or doing things with them.
At least that was my experience. It only gets worse when you have kids. Trying to find time to work out when you have children can be a nightmare!!!!
