Boyfriends Make You Fat

Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight, according to dieticians.

(1)But the opposite is true for men, whose long-term health benefits when they move in with a female partner.

Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.

(2)While women chose to make creamier, heavier dishes like curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner.

The report, by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the findings of a variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of cohabiting couples and married couples.

The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner. Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress. (4)While the same finding has not been observed in men. Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.

Report author and registered dietician Dr Amelia Lake said, “The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle. (5)”
