Short advice video by Jim Katsoulis addressing stress eating. He argues that for people whose weight issues are driven by stress eating, following a stressful diet is counterproductive. Instead, he recommends prioritizing relaxation and calming practices, which he says will reduce stress eating and lead to weight loss and greater wellbeing.

If stress eating is a big part of your weight issue, then how would trying to start and follow a really stressful diet be the solution? A much more strategic approach would be to start focusing on relaxing and calming down, because when you're more relaxed and calm, the stress eating goes down and your weight goes down and it feels better the entire time. So forget the stressful diets because they just add to the problem and start focusing on feeling more calm and relaxed.
