Sure dear,
Stress can impact weight in different ways, depending on how your body and mind respond. When you're stressed, your body releases cortisol, a hormone that increases appetite and encourages fat storage, especially around the abdomen. Also, Chronic stress can reduce metabolic rate, making it harder to burn calories. When stressed, people may lack the motivation or energy to exercise, leading to a sedentary lifestyle.
Similar tress can also contribute to weight loss. Some people experience a decrease in appetite when stressed, leading to reduced calorie intake. Also, ever heard of stress induced ulcer? Stress can cause stomach problems (nausea, diarrhea, acid reflux), making it harder to eat and absorb nutrients properly. Stress can trigger the “fight-or-flight” response (sympathetic nervous system), where your body burns more energy than usual.
Managing stress through healthy coping mechanisms (exercise, meditation, proper sleep, and balanced eating) can prevent both unwanted weight gain and unintentional weight loss.
