Observe: At holidays, people often eat a lot more than they do ordinarily and their reactions can differ widely. One can feel pleasantly full, or get heart burn from reflux due to over-distension of he stomach. Digestion can be upset causing bloating and gas or even vomiting. If food causes craving and one overeats chronically, one can gain excess weight.

Tend to gain weight.: When we overeat, the extra calories your body doesn't immediately need for energy get deposited into long term storage, which is fat, to be used at a later time. More overeating, more extra fat storage, which eventually becomes overweight and obesity.
