Stress and food

Over the last three weeks, I've been working on a different line of business (last day was yesterday, I'm back to my normal work as of tomorrow).

As a result, I've been so stressed, and lost quite a bit of weight as I was never hungry.

In my first post I said I weighted 59 kg, but in actual fact I've been hovering close to 58 kg for about a week now. I don't really count it though as I didn't get to it by being healthy, far from it, and I expect to gain that back once I am back to my normal work.

I am really annoyed that stress with this new position would affect me like this, as it's something I would like to do more of and I'll not be able to otherwise I'll get sick. I will need to find a way of minimising the stress of it or find a way to deal with it better.

I did force myself to have at least one good meal a day, and even ended up eating A LOT of chocolate, but it clearly wasn't enough. My body needed nutrients, not empty calories. Incidentally, I had no energy to go to the gym either.

So I don't know, I'll need to think about this one before I do this short-term job again.

Stress has never affected me this way before.
