A short YouTube talk by Jim Katsoulis advising that to lose weight you need not give up favorite foods permanently; instead, change how you eat them (consume smaller amounts/tweak behavior). The speaker frames this approach as less depriving and as a sustainable basis for mastering weight long-term.

You need to make peace with the foods you love. When you want to lose weight, you do not need to give them up forever. You just need to change the way that you're eating them. And when you start looking at this way, it feels a lot more comfortable. Because when you think you're never going to be able to eat the food you love again, it starts to feel depriving and it sabotages you. So once you realize it's just about tweaking the behavior so that you're consuming less of them, it starts to feel more comfortable. And that becomes the basis of really, truly mastering your weight once and for all.
