Piling on the pounds and becoming overweight for some people is a response to stress and difficult situations. There is a close yet complex connection between food and our emotions, hence the phrase comfort food.

From comfort eating in childhood to coping with work-related stress by pigging out, millions of people worldwide struggle daily with their weight.
