The Slow Descent: How Stress Became My Culinary Companion
The Comfort Food Chronicles
Stress is a funny thing. It creeps up on you, whispers sweet nothings about comfort food, and before you know it, you’re in a passionate relationship with everything delicious and forbidden:
- Late-night stress eating became my Olympic sport
- Comfort food was my therapist, my friend, my everything
- Workouts? They became a distant memory
- Motivation packed its bags and went on an extended vacation
The Emotional Rollercoaster
I wasn’t just eating; I was seeking comfort. Each bite was a temporary escape from:
- Work pressures
- Personal challenges
- The constant noise of everyday life
- The need to feel something other than stress

- My jeans decided they’d had ENOUGH
Imagine sitting down and suddenly hearing a sound that can only be described as the last gasp of defeated clothing. Not a rip. Not a tear. An EXPLOSION.

Emotions flooded in waves:
