Cause you use alot of your muscles when you cry and that results in burning calories and tiredness also crying helps with cleaning your mind of emotions .

Crying releases stress hormones like cortisol. Cortisol produces the fight or flight response which makes you more alert, so releasing these hormones will allow the body to calm down.
