Somehow many of them have the will to lose weight for their wedding pictures.
And many will find the will to lose weight after a divorce. Suddenly, it becomes not only possible but a priority for many, when faced with the desire to find a new relationship.

I'm not saying I agree to the criticism, but this is just touche.
I've seen a ton of women in the gym who recounted that they started working out in the gym, after the divorce, like some form of revenge or to find a new guy.
Interesting
It's the post 35, divorced/single ladies who spend the "most" time in the gym.

AC,
When was the last time you were in India? Times are changing.

This is so true. Its great that they are working on bettering themselves but why didnt they think to do it before losing their spouse/S.O.?

Maybe the spouse was triggering the eating? Maybe they just didn't care because why would they for someone they don't really love anymore? Maybe spending time alone made them really see themselves for who they are and who they want to be? Theres so many reasons.

Don’t understand the pattern. You’ll have her working out daily, looking nice, etc. Marriage comes and those things are forgotten. No more gym, no more eating responsibly, etc. Then after divorce, she gets back in shape working out again, looking nice, being responsible with her diet, etc.

There's no particular pattern. I can think of several reasons why that scenario might happen:
Taking one's spouse for granted, or a passive-aggressive response to being taken for granted
The spouse was not supportive of a healthy lifestyle or promoted an unhealthy one

Good point. Yes, it can become "what came first, the chicken or the egg?" Sometimes women who are emotionally abused or have husbands who withdraw turn to food for comfort. So, yes, I'm sure there are plenty of women who start their road to weight gain via this track.

While studying outside my country and shared a flat, people around me ate, what I call, irresponsibly. Lots of fast food, instant soups, beers, no gym for them, etc. It was my very own desicion to either relax a bit and follow the same lifestyle or not. I am responsible for my very own actions. Don't see how I can justify myself for getting fat just because "others provoked me". I somehow find it a bit cheap for people to blame it on others for something like gaining weight. Heck, there are cases in the USA where fat people are suing fast food chain restaurants because of their obesity. Pointing their fingers at fast food instead of pointing the finger at their own mouth for putting all kinds of junk in it. Hhhhmmm Big Mac or Salad? Hhhhmmm Coke or a Tea? Hhhhmmm an hour or two at the gym or at the couch with the remote control? The deicision is ours.

I imagine that life as a single man is often very different from that of a working spouse and parent, so you have a different perspective.
