Kummerspeckkoom-er-shpeck

n. Literally meaning "grief-bacon" the word refers to the excess weight we can gain from emotional overeating. Sometimes you just have to eat those feelings, and in large quantities. Unfortunately, we are programmed to find comfort in the edible, and until you catch sight of yourself in a reflective surface a month later, it often works.
