| Weight Loss | Stress/Unhappiness and Weightloss. Possible? | May 05 2008 20:15 (UTC) |

if you're stressed it can definitely effect your weight loss. Stress hormones like cortisol effect your fat distribution. In the evolutionary sense, stress meant that times were hard - either famine or war. Both are circumstances where keeping your energy stores stocked could mean a better chance at survival. Women are better at storing fat, because in the event of a famine, your body is designed to sustain itself for at least 9 months, just in case you were to become pregnant. Men don't have that burden. moreover, emotional stress caused by lack of support by family, community, or a mate could signal a loss of resources where once again, it would be a good idea to have energy if you were left out on your own to care for your fetus or children.
I hope that was helpful.. |
