    • Abstract:
      The article identifies the factors that contribute to weight gain and offers tips for avoiding the risks. A study found that social networks influence weight gain. Instead of making plans to go out for drinks and dinner, engage in physical fitness activities. It was found that people who pay for their food with a credit card spend 30 percent more than those who pay with cash. One is likely to spend less when paying cash.
