    Stress definitely effects my homeostasis, boo cortisol.

    Proof, grade 5 science class.

    Stress increases cortisol levels IIRC.

    ^^ I believe this impacts us to a degree (like a few pounds here and there, bloating). BUT stress alone does not make people obese. Bad eating habits from stress does or lack of motivation to workout due to stress does or just plain over eating. We all want to think our weight issues are due to something medical beyond our control.....but most of the time it's unhealthy habits that have led us to where we are.

    I have always been the opposite. When I am stressed, my stomach is in knots and I just CANNOT eat. I lose weight very quickly when I am stressed. I recently heard some disturbing news and lost 8 pounds in a week ~ no exaggeration!! Once I got myself back together, I have been VERY diligent to keep the weight off. Didn't want to lose it that way...but I am happy to keep it off.
