Eating stress for breakfast, lunch and dinner

There is an interesting concept that I have been thinking about for a while, and I admit to having been introduced to it through watching Oprah on daytime television. So sue me I am a stay at home mum at the moment. I digress, the idea is that any person can simply look at me to find out how my life is going. The fatter I am the more stressed or unhappy my life is at that point. Conversely the thinner I am the better everything seems to go and has gone.

In a nutshell, eating not for hunger or even boredom ( of which I am also *cough* guilty) but to suppress feelings, relieve stress or ease tension. I always thought I didn't get stressed but now am wondering how much of my stress I have eaten over the years. How many of the stressful situations in my life have resulted in weight gain? From my recollections pretty much all of them.
