I'm wondering how much of an impact stress has on weightloss? My diet has been 90% perfect. Today, work related stress and now a lunch, is getting in my way. I wonder which is worse. My work related stress has more to do with a complete lack of understanding on the part of upper management than my having to then follow up problems by having lunch/dinner after solving the problem. Then I've got a wife who simply doesn't understand money management. I get calls from credit cards saying payments weren't made, so to add more stress to my day I've got to try and leave work in order to make it to the bank on time to pay stuff off. Add to thst that my wife and I have a rocky marriage (Her mother caused a huge rift while living with us. She passed in May afte almost 10 years with us). I'm also homesick, I haven't been home to Canada in almost 8 years. I haven't met my nephew and niece. I'm always looking for ways to make life a little easier but nothing except being in the gym seems to clear my mind.
With all the stress, being in a caloric deficit, in the gym 5 days a week (In the gym, I feel great. Getting there takes time. It's far enough away I have to take public transport, but closr enough I still need to walk a distance when all I want is to be in the gym.)
This came off sounding more like a rant but I am asking for advice on dealing with stress while staying on track with diet and training. And to what degree does this stress affect weightloss?
