Obvious results. People get hitched, they figure "what's the point?" in staying fit. Which is why if a potential SO isn't a gym-goer when you first meet, send em to the :bushes:.

No, being a sloppy eater and dormant makes you fat. It is also irresponsible to your spouse and your kids to be fat. First off it sets a bad example for your kids, secondly it causes strain on your health that will either cause you to die early and leave your spouse a widow or have major health issues and become a psychological and possibly financial burden on your children once they become adults

There is NO legit excuse not to be in shape, it is simply lack of caring or laziness. I don't care if you have 1 kid or 15 kids. If you have time to watch TV, you have time to do a 30 minute bodyweight workout routine 3 times per week. No human being is too busy to exercise, they are just too lazy and lie to themselves. And the most important thing is the type and quantity of food you eat, which takes exactly ZERO extra time to fix.

The links posted in the OP are a classic example of causation vs. correlation. Marriage itself doesn't make you fat. Why would signing your name on a piece of paper make you gain weight?

I know this post was harsh, but it is the reality of it and unfortunately the reality is harsh.

People needs to stop using the gym as a way for visual looks and more about your health.

People hate the truth that much that speaking it makes you a bully or something?

I have been through both ends of the spectrum already. I got married when I was in great shape. I stopped eating well or caring about physical fitness. I got fat (not THAT fat, but fat), probably about 30-40 pounds higher than I should be. Marriage was not an excuse, I just did not think about my health whatsoever.

Luckily, I got a blood test done for my life insurance and saw how high my cholesterol numbers were and a lightbulb went off. I started with a lifestyle change (not a diet) and slowly melted away my fat pound by pound for the next year. I will never go back. I do not want to leave my wife a widow, and I do not want my kids to have to come visit me at a nursing home when I am 80 years old.

My sister was pretty overweight and after she saw my results she also started a new way of clean living and has lost 40 pounds in the last 6 months. Not because she wants to be a fitness model, but because she saw my reasoning (for the sake of the kids) and realized that she was also being a poor example on her 4 little girls.

If people would start looking at it that way, rather than a quest to look like a magazine cover model then we might not have such an obesity problem. Unfortunately, too many people start on diets and give up because they don't get quick results. Live a different lifestyle. Eat mostly healthy foods and if you have to eat something unhealthy then use a very controlled portion. Work out when you get a chance, it doesn't take much effort. Do 2 sets of pushups and 2 sets of bodyweight squats every day and you already are doing more than 90% of people. Marriage or kids is not an excuse to do the opposite.

Social studies does not equal scientific studies

Correlation does not equal causation

Bruh you are a 100% right and what you are saying is known by virtually everyone.

I was disputing the fact the marriage makes you fat.
