I know personally (and science had taught me) that when stressed, because of the cortisol, you have a tendency to gain weight.

I lost my sense of taste and smell when I had my industrial accident. So the only pleasures I have from eating are the ambiance, texture, temperature, visual, and of course good memories of foods!

I find I simply must write down what I eat when I'm stressed (the exact period of time I forget or don't because of the stress!) If it's on paper, then I won't overeat "accidently." Otherwise, I don't know even IF I've eaten, much less what!

I suspect overeating is a habit too?
