A short YouTube monologue by Jim Katsoulis advising that you should not completely stop eating your favorite foods to lose weight. He argues that eliminating favorite foods is unsustainable and instead recommends eating them differently — more moderately and less often — so they remain part of life and can be anticipated.

Do not stop eating your favorite foods in order to lose weight. This is one of the biggest mistakes I see people making. If you believe you need to completely stop eating your favorite foods in order to lose weight, you're probably not going to lose weight because you're not going to live a life where you don't get to eat some of your favorite foods. So instead of trying to stop yourself from eating the foods, instead use that energy to eat these foods differently, to eat them more moderately, to eat them less often, but to still have them as part of your life so that you can look forward to them.
