When do girls gain weight?

Many girls feel that they used to be very thin, but suddenly they gain weight rapidly, which makes many girls feel troubled. In fact, at a certain age, physical fitness will decline. Due to the influence of many factors, it is also easy to face the phenomenon of gaining weight. For men, it is the easiest stage to gain weight after the age of 40. So when is the fattening period for girls?

1. Gaining weight during puberty: obesity is normal during the developmental stage

When women enter puberty, their ovaries and adrenal cortex begin to undergo functional changes and produce more female hormones and less male hormones. The ovaries then ovulate and naturally synthesize progesterone, which causes external physical changes in women, such as rapid height growth, breast development, increased body fat, and a gradually plumper body, showing obvious secondary sexual characteristics.

The above series of changes are all normal and are phenomena that cannot be avoided in natural development. What is particularly striking is that adolescent obesity plays a vital role in sexual maturity, menstruation and the formation of regularity, so there is no need to worry too much and add to your worries.

In fact, many women, once they see themselves gaining weight, worry all day long that this adolescent obesity will get out of control, so they just go on a diet. Over time, this causes psychological anorexia and severe nutritional deficiencies. In any case, this will do more harm than good to the normal development of adolescence and even normal growth in the future.

2. After joining the workforce: The harder you work, the more likely you are to gain weight

According to surveys, working in the workplace often leads to obesity, especially the harder a person works, the more likely they are to gain weight.

The survey found that the harder you work, the easier it is to gain weight. The main reason is that you are too busy with work to have time for exercise, and 70% of workplaces do not have fitness facilities. Relying on emails and the Internet to communicate with colleagues in the workplace, and being too lazy to walk to other colleagues' offices to discuss business, is the reason for weight gain. In addition, eating out frequently is the main reason for weight gain.

3. Having children

Having a baby is a stage in life that almost every woman must go through, but how many can keep their figure after becoming a mother? Pregnancy and childbirth are the times when women are most likely to gain weight.

4. Middle age: most likely to gain weight

Physiological aspects

When people are between 40 and 50 years old, the functions of various organs begin to decline, such as the function of the heart and the respiratory system, and the metabolism of the corresponding organs naturally decreases, and calorie consumption will also decrease accordingly. As a result, the accumulated fat will very accurately reside in the abdomen, buttocks, thighs and other places.

Sports

When people reach middle age, due to psychological and practical reasons, their mental and physical labor decreases, and their calorie consumption also decreases. They also reduce outings and sports, causing the extra calories to turn into fat, and a big belly will appear. However, due to work and physical reasons, people entering middle age are not suitable for overly strenuous exercise, and losing weight becomes a big problem.

5. After recovery - during the recovery stage, appetite often increases sharply

After recovering from a serious illness, there is a natural recovery process. During this time, appetite often increases sharply, and those who previously had poor sleep will often fall asleep in bed. If you suffer from non-serious wasting diseases, such as trauma, sterilization surgery, appendectomy, hysterectomy, oophorectomy, etc., and you take too long to recuperate, eat too much, and get too little exercise, your body will become plump.

In fact, eating well and resting well are only basic conditions for recovery, but not the only conditions. The positive role of exercise in recovery should not be ignored, and it is also an effective way to prevent obesity after illness. After illness, when your appetite is particularly strong, you should pay attention to controlling your diet.

Experts remind that in addition to the above-mentioned stages, people may suffer from obesity when they are frustrated or proud, but as long as they calmly adjust their mentality, eat normally and reasonably, and pay attention to exercise, they will stay away from obesity.

6. It is easy to gain weight after marriage

Marriage often means a change in lifestyle, and 13% of women in the survey gained weight after marriage. In fact, the main reason is that these women have a more comfortable life and therefore have no restraint in eating!

Before marriage, two people are in the passionate love period. People in love are very strange. They may be so happy or sad over the slightest thing that they cannot eat. Love has diverted many people's interest in food. Even those who love to eat may spend more time with their loved ones, and naturally maintain a good figure.

In the past, when I was single, I might not have eaten at regular times, or I might just eat a piece of bread or a bowl of instant noodles as a meal. After living together, the wife will generally take on the responsibility of taking care of her husband's daily life and meals, ending the days of "food and clothing as they please". When two people cook and eat together, and talk and laugh together, they will be particularly happy. When they are in a good mood, their appetite will be good, and it will be easier to gain weight.

7. Long working hours

Staying up late will affect the operation of our biological clock and our metabolism will become abnormal. You should know that the speed of metabolism will affect the rate at which our body consumes calories. So when you often stay up late, your metabolic rate will decrease, and you will develop a physique that is easy to gain weight and difficult to lose weight.

Moreover, when we sleep, the body secretes an endocrine hormone called "leptin". If we stay up late or do not sleep well, it will affect the secretion of leptin, making it difficult to lose weight, which means we will gain weight.
