Does Having Bad Memory Impact Weight?

Research shows that people with bad memories are more likely to be
overweight.

Bad memory might impact a person's weight because not remembering how much
one recently ate could make the brain trigger feelings of hunger, according
to a 2013 study. For example, participants with amnesia that caused
short-term memory loss would report feeling hungry not long after meals
because they had forgotten about the previous meal. Researchers believe
that people who are able to eat properly sized portions are those whose
food memories and stomachs are synchronized — they can remember more
accurately their recent meals or snacks and can refer back to them. Another
2013 study found that women who lost weight reported improvements in
cognition, which might suggest that obesity itself contributes to bad
memory.
