Our weight primarily depends upon the quantity of food we eat, the kind of food we eat, whether we eat as a means of relieving stress, whether we exercise regularly, and so on. Other factors that also contribute to our weight are age, genetics, general physiological condition and wellbeing.
It is always beneficial to know how you put on weight, because you’ll then be aware of what NOT to do when striving for weight loss. In this blog post I’ll talk about the habits/activities that cause you to put on weight.
Social life is one of the biggest culprits. In many places, having a “good time” generally means eating scrummy food. This makes you develop a taste for bad habits like overeating.
Another reason of putting on weight is improper amount and time of intake. If you stray too much from an adequate breakfast, good lunch, small snack, and perfect dinner, it disturbs the energy balance of your body.
Skipping breakfast, not having a proper lunch, snacking on junk food, coming home to eat a big dinner, and sleeping immediately after dinner is quite common. When you are asleep your metabolic rate is very low, and therefore the food you eat just before bedtime doesn’t break down, leading to storage of fat.
