Have you ever been on the stress diet?

Asked by JLeslie (65420points) March 1st, 2013

It’s been a long time since stress has killed my appetite. It isn’t completely dead, but definitely not as hungry as usual. Lost a few pounds, definitely a side benefit. I hate being so stressed, I really think it shortens my life, but I did wear a pair of jeans last night I have been trying to get into.

Boredom and sadness can make me eat, but anxiety tends to do the opposite.

So, have you ever lost weight on the stress diet? Usually from life’s big changes like moving (what I am currently going through) divorce, marriage, death of a loved one, illness. What caused you to lose weight that was not during a purposeful weight losing diet? Were you happy to lose the weight?
