Episode 39: Stress and Weight: What’s the Connection?

When I ask people who have regained weight what they think led to their regain, the number one response I get is, “Stress!” I always tell them that eating leads to weight regain. But is there a physiological connection between the biological effects of stress and increased food consumption? Or can stress simply be tossed into the general category of emotional eating? In this episode of BariAftercare, the Podcast, you’ll learn the answers to those questions. You’ll also learn about the effects of stress on different body systems. The great news in this episode is that you are able to influence the negative effects of stress on your body – IF you are willing to put forth some effort. Just like the weight loss process. There is a lot of good you CAN do for your body and mind… with just a bit of effort!
