Being in a relationship makes us pile on the pounds as we feel happy and
secure in a loved-up couple, research shows.
研究显示，谈恋爱会让我们变胖，因为我们在热恋中感到幸福和安心。
Having a long-term partner is something most people crave, longing for the
stability and intimacy it brings.
大多数人渴望拥有一个长期伴侣，渴望其带来的稳定和亲密。
And you have someone to curl up under the duvet with when it rains, someone
to cook you dinner and go halves with when ordering a pizza.
下雨的时候，会有人和你一起蜷缩在羽绒被下，会有人为你做晚餐，会有人和你分吃买来的披萨。
But a study lasting more than a decade has confirmed what many suspected –
being in a relationship makes you fatter.
但一项持续了10多年的研究证实了许多人的猜测——谈恋爱会让你变胖。
Conducted by the University of Queensland, Australia, researchers found
being together could be a source of weight gain.
澳大利亚昆士兰大学的研究人员发现，在一起可能会导致体重增加。
Analyzing data from more than 15,000 people over 10 years, they found those
in a couple weighed on average 12.7 pounds more than their single
counterparts.
研究人员分析了1.5万多人10年以上的数据，他们发现那些情侣的体重比单身人士平均重了12.7磅。
And those with a significant other also had an average weight gain of 3.9
pounds per year.
而那些有另一半的人也平均每年增重了3.9磅。
The researchers said: “Marriage (or de-facto relationships) comes with
spousal obligations such as regular family meals.”
研究人员说：“婚姻(或同居关系)伴随着配偶义务，比如家庭聚餐。”
“While they may include more healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables
and less fast food, people often consume larger portion sizes and more calories
in the company of others than they do alone, resulting in increased energy
intake,” New Scientist reported.
据《新科学家》杂志报道：“虽然他们可能摄入更多的健康食品，如水果和蔬菜，以及少吃快餐，但人们经常会在别人的陪伴下消耗比自己单身时更多的食物和更多的热量，从而增加能量摄入。” |
