Being on a diet has always been my New Year's resolution for the past few years.
This year, I really did lose some weight through exercises and controlling my diet.
However, I'm going through a pretty stressful stage of my life (aka deciding my career path, etc.), and I have these crazy, crazy cravings for chocolate, pizza, sweets, and anything high-carb, high-fat, and high-sugar.
And it's killing me. Today I realized that I gained 3 pounds back.![:( :(](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/frowning.png)
Do any of you guys have this toxic cycle of stress and food?
I don't want to lose my motivation or give up on my diet... And I don't know how to control my stress without binge eating..
