【大紀元2月19日訊】女人愛美是天性，體態的勻稱更是被重視，一般大眾皆認為飲食的內容物主導了女人們的體型，事實上不然，根據一項英國最新的研究顯示，愛情會影響女人體重的波動；女人們與另一半處在不同的愛情階段會有不同的體重變化。
根據＜每日郵報＞日前報道，英國這項研究調查收集有3000多位已婚女性加入，研究結果顯示出可將整個愛情過程分為5個階段，分別對應不同的體重變化。第一階段為「蜜月期」：雙方陷入熱戀中，一切事物都顯得那麼美好、新鮮、刺激，為了維持女性應有的矜持，處處得注意，以便給予異性留下好的印象，飲食方面尤其會節制，此期體重平均會下降3.85公斤。第二階段為「舒服安逸期」：在蜜月期後的幾年中，由於雙方平行交往中，感情穩定，常常會安排浪漫的夜晚出遊，享受燭光晚餐，不知不覺攝入過多的營養，增加了不少的體重，此期平均肥了5.12公斤。
第三階段為「重要日子時期」：雙方終於要攜手踏入結婚的禮堂，在親朋好友的祝福中，展現最優美的體態是每一位準新娘在這一生中最重要的時刻，讓所有參與者留下永恆的回憶。此期體重平均會下降4.17公斤。第四階段為「寶寶出生期」：由於懷孕、生子的生理性原因會使體重增胖約7.25公斤。最後階段為「再創造時期」：有了小孩後，重心原本放在小孩身上，花費在老公的時間相對變少了，但隨著孩子的長大獨立，雙方可以運用的自由時間亦增加，重新點燃二度蜜月的興致。此期體重平均會下降7.25公斤。

How Love Makes a Woman's Weight Yo-yo
摘要：
女性所追求的完美體形只和飲食有關係？恐怕事情並沒有那麼簡單！事實上，並不是吃什麼左右了女人們的體形，而是愛情在從中起著重要作用。英國一項最新的研究結果顯示，女人的體重波動取決於她和愛人的關係狀況。
Women were given new food for thought yesterday about their weight. Apparently, it's not what you eat that dictates your size - it's love, or the lack of it. A lady's weight fluctuates according to the state of her relationship, says a study.
女性所追求的完美體形只和飲食有關係？恐怕事情並沒有那麼簡單！事實上，並不是吃什麼左右了女人們的體形，而是愛情在從中起著重要作用。英國一項最新的研究結果顯示，女人的體重波動取決於她和愛人的關係狀況。
據《每日郵報》日前報道，此項研究共涉及3000餘位已婚女性。研究揭示了女人一生當中體形變化的各個不同階段。
在研究的首個階段——“蜜月時期”，女性體重平均會下降8.5磅。這個時候，她們遇到了自己夢中的“白馬王子”，一切都顯得那麼新鮮而刺激。為了給異性留下深刻印象，女人們享受浪漫晚餐時甚至只點沙拉而已。
接下來是“舒適階段”，在這個時期內，女性的體重會大幅增加，平均增肥11.3磅。“舒適階段”指的是“蜜月期”過後的幾年時間，在這段時期內兩人關係發展穩定。通常是在安逸的夜晚，兩人一邊享用外賣食品一邊欣賞DVD，在這樣的環境下，安逸幸福的女人們無疑會積攢下一些肥肉。
“重要的日子”是女性形體變化的第三階段，這段時期內，她們的體重會下降大約9.2磅。在“重要的日子”裏，與你感情甜蜜的他終於提出了那個讓人心動的請求！當然，沒有什麼比一場婚禮更能激發女人們追求完美身材的想法了。健康飲食、適當運動還有一大堆的美容護理是處在這個階段任何一位“準新娘”的標準作法。
“重要的日子”的日子過後，女人們就將迎來“寶寶降生”的階段。女人在生下寶寶之後，體重將增加大約16磅之多！而此項研究的最後一個階段即是“再創造時期”，這時女性體重將下降16磅之多。這段時期內，孩子們都逐漸長大，她和自己的丈夫擁有更多可以自由支配的時間，過去兩人間迸發的火花無疑會在這個時期被重新找回。

Women were given new food for thought yesterday about their weight. Apparently, it's not what you eat that dictates your size - it's love, or the lack of it. A lady's weight fluctuates according to the state of her relationship, says a study.
The survey of more than 3,000 married women revealed the different stages the female figure goes through over the course of a lifetime. First comes The Honeymoon Period, when she will lose an average of 8.5lb.
This is when she's met the man of her dreams and everything is new and exciting. She's so keen to impress that she even orders salad for a romantic meal.
Next comes The Comfy Zone, when she will put on 11.3 lb. This is a a few years into the relationship and things are going well. She's so comfortable with her new man that after cosy nights in with a takeaway and a DVD, she has steadily piled on the pounds.
Stage three is The Big Day, when she will lose 9.2 lb. At last, he has popped the question and there's nothing like a wedding to spur a girl on to look her best. Healthy eating, exercise and plenty of beauty treatments are the norm for any bride-to-be.
Then comes The Baby Boom, when she will put on 16lb after giving birth. New mothers have enough on their plate to be worrying about dieting.
Stage five is The Reinvention, when a woman will lose 16lb. The children are older and at last she and her husband have more time on their hands. She feels it's time for a midlife makeover to bring back the old spark.
Almost 66 per cent of those surveyed said their weight fluctuates depending on how happy they are at a specific time. And 84 per cent said their relationship is the biggest factor in their wellbeing.
WeightWatchers, which carried out the survey, said: "A lot of women won't be surprised by these findings. Our emotions and relationships in particular have an enormous effect on our health and above all our weight.
"It's only natural when we have a period of unhappiness that we comfort eat and when we have an event like a wedding we will work hard to look our best."
