When a deadline is the trigger for stress eating, it feels like a double whammy. You have both a desire to eat as a coping mechanism and a recultance to try the find another activity approach to coping with stress, since exercising, taking a bubble bath, playing with your dog, etc. would take crucial time away from your work.

    Same here! Except that by the time I get home from work, I am exhausted, & can't find the energy to do much beyond nuking a TV dinner & going to bed. What makes it 100x worse, our 'candy fund' in right behind my desk maybe 10 feet.
