For some people, stress tends to increase consumption of foods rich in fats and sugars. To avoid cravings when you're stressed, make sure you eat structured meals, without skipping breakfast, for example. If you still feel hungry between two meals, plan a nutritionally rewarding snack: fruit, dairy product, oilseed, etc. And while there's nothing to stop you from indulging in your favorite dessert from time to time, the best thing to do is to fight the source of the problem, by developing your own stress management strategy.
