Has the economic downturn had any impact on your weight? UNPUBLISHED

Candy and snack sales are up over the last several months.  We started to wonder if this increase in sales is hitting our waste lines?!  Since the recession began, have you noticed a difference in your eating habits and weight?

Some of us tend to eat more when we’re stressed while others do the opposite and eat less!  Have you noticed a difference in your weight?  We want to know!

I've gained weight...I snack for comfort when I'm stressed (50.0%)

I've lost weight...I can't eat when I'm stressed (16.7%)

Nope, no change (33.3%)

    OMG! I was just talking with my girlfriends about this the other day! I think I've gained at least 5 pounds since the recession started. I cut out my gym membership and have started to eat more "comfort" foods. I'm not looking forward to the start of summer in a few short months! My goal is to lose the extra poundage by then.
