According to foreign media reports, a new study shows that women's enthusiasm for losing weight is related to the attractiveness of their partners. Women who are less attractive than their husbands are more inclined to improve their appearance and eating habits and try to lose weight. But those women who are more attractive than their husbands are less motivated to win this "battle to lose weight".

The research of Florida State University also shows that the behavior of different men generally does not change because of the wife's "face value".

Tania Reynolds, the co-author of this study, is a doctoral student. She said, "The question that this study focuses on is,' What is the relationship between my attractiveness and the attractiveness of my other half?' And how this problem will affect different genders. "

The results show that having a high-profile husband will force women to pay the "price" of dieting and losing weight, especially if she is not so attractive.

According to reports, this study tracked 1 13 couples from Dallas, USA. They are nearly 30 years older and have been married for less than 4 months. These newlyweds answered some questions about dieting and losing weight, such as "I feel guilty after eating", "I hope my stomach is empty" and "I'm afraid of being fat".

In order to measure the charm, each subject was photographed by Southern Methodist University.

The undergraduate evaluation team of the university judges the facial attractiveness of the subjects according to the photos; Another evaluation team from Florida State University evaluated its physical beauty.

The results show that women who have high-value husbands but are not so attractive are most inclined to go on a diet. With a perfect score of 6, their "motivation value" is 3.5; An attractive woman has a less attractive male partner, and her dieting motivation is 3.1; If the charm value of both husband and wife is relatively low, the dieting motivation is 2.9 points; But if the couple's charm value is high, the dieting motivation is only 2.7 points.

Reynolds said, "For women, this study reinforces the fact that we are social creatures. We will be influenced by the social partners around us. "

According to the report, although the study did not determine the causes and effects, it showed that "women will see themselves through the perspective of social partners". In contrast, "men's dieting motivation has no significant relationship with their attraction to themselves and their partners." "

The results of this study echo previous studies, indicating that women tend to exaggerate their partners' expectations of their body shape, and their dieting motivation is often driven by their relationship with others.

The next proposition of this study may be how women's diet and motivation to lose weight are stimulated by attractive female friends around them.

I think this research is very reliable. Losing weight really needs some reasons and motivation.
