Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumference, TFEQ, Three Factor Eating Questionnaire; M, male; F, female

*

N = 173 with complete anthropometry data; all models adjusted sex

**

The P-values for the sex by perceived stress interaction terms were 0.0012, 0.0157, and 0.0068 for weight, BMI and WC, respectively

Total TFEQ score is the sum of the three domain raw scores, and ranges from 0-76. In contrast to the total TFEQ score, domain scores were transformed and each domain ranges from 0-100
