The start of the New Year is the most common time when people try to lose weight. Are you tired of the same old New Year's resolutions?

Longer work hours and greater competition, both at work and academically, contribute to stress and consequently, weight gain. When people experience stress, the body feels a flight-or-fight response; this makes the body more hungry, so it will have the energy to fight off the attack, and it could lead to the body storing more fat, Lofton said. Plus, many people turn to food as a source of comfort when they feel stressed or unhappy, Burguera said.
