Why does it seem easier for men to lose weight? It may be all in our heads. Women simply obsess about food more. According to a recent survey,25% of women think about food every half-hour. When it comes to men,only less than 3% find their minds wandering to it every 30 minutes. (29) Moreover,when do sit down for dinner,women are more Ukely to have multitasking meals, eating, filing, or even driving at the same time. While they’re distracted by work,traffic or the TV,they’re apt to overeat without even realizing it. And there’s another fact,women tend to relate emotionally to food while men do not. The book Conquering Heart Attack &Stroke references a brain-scan study in which researchers flashed tempting foods in front of men and women who hadn’t eaten for a day,then told them to fight their hunger. (30) The men’s brains showed far less activity in areas of emotional regulation, memory, and motivation than the women’s—as if men were more easily able to switch off their desires for favorite foods, which included fried chicken, sausage, ice cream, and pizza. Also, according to a massive study published in this month’s Weight Watchers, researchers found that on average the digestion of a man is 5 to 10 percent higher than that of a woman of the same weight and height. (31) So to top it all off, men just conveniently have faster digestions. So here is the advice for women: if you are trying to lose weight and you have just had a difficult day at the office, don’t walk home past a bakery.
