There are lots of things that we partnered people do as a couple -- eat out, go shopping, go to movies. But would you ever consider dieting with your partner or spouse? Couples dieting is a trend these days, and a study from Yale University shows that those who tackle weightloss alongside their significant other can have better results than those who go at it alone. Of course, if you're single, that doesn't mean your doomed to fail -- finding a friend to take the journey with you works just as well.

I wouldn't do a couples diet, only because my significant other, Jon, is really quite lean (despite a horrendous calorie-laden diet, the jerk.) But I think dieting with a friend would work well for me. What do you think?
