-Over eating dramatically speeds up metabolism and processing of food, causing the body to get rid of this food in "a big load" :), and encouraging the body to store the energy as fat.
-Excess food causes the pancreas to produce insulin until the blood sugar is at a "safe level." But by the time the insulin production stops, blood sugar is too low, causing us to feel tired, dizzy, depressed, etc. But, "thankfully," we can remedy this with more carbs or sugars, which are quickly stored as fat anyway. That fact seems to be compounded by the the previous one.
-Cold liquids cause your stomach to contract and message the food down and out, making you hungry sooner.
