The body's homeostasis mechanism for maintaining body weight is extremely powerful.
People often stress eat when they are sad.
People are often on diets trying to lose weight, so their homeostasis mechanism is fighting them.
Therefore we imagine the homeostasis mechanism as an external entity, malevolently puppeteering you into self-destructive actions which will cause you stress and unhappiness, all to ultimately get you to consume more calories to counteract your weight-loss diet.
