Jim Katsoulis argues weight is just what happens when you overeat, not the real problem. Stop saying you're gaining weight. Say you're eating more. When you name the actual cause, your brain finds the solution.

You're not overweight, you're overeating. And I know you said, no shit, Jim, but listen, hear me out. Because a lot of times we get fixated on the weight piece, we get fixated on the scale. So, oh my God, I'm gaining weight. Oh my God, I've lost weight. But not really. Weight is really a cause and effect situation where weight is the effect, meaning you can't change the effect itself, you have to change the cause. Again, the cause of your weight is your eating. And when you start to instead of saying, oh, I've gained weight, you start to say I've been eating more, it actually is much more clarifying to your brain. The more clear and literal you are when you describe the problem, the more close you are to finding the solution.
