Memorable Quotes:

"Realize that losing weight and being fit and being healthy isn't meant to be an ordeal. It's going to be challenging for sure. It's going to require you to make some changes. But it should be making you feel good and proud and energized and healthy at the end of the day."

Are you overeating all of a sudden? Is stress the cause of your overeating? Or is stress eating preventing you from reaching your fitness goals? Then, this episode is for you. Nikki digs into the issue of stress-eating and shares ways that you can stop it.

In this podcast episode, Nikki shares:

• Five key steps for overcoming stress eating:

1. Bringing awareness to your situation of stress-eating

4. Figuring out how you could decrease those triggers

5. Constantly reflecting, refocusing, and repeating — shifting habits is going to take time

Memorable Quotes:

"If you're stress-eating a lot or emotional eating, and don't know how to stop it, don't get frustrated with yourself. This is a habit that you have to look at as an opportunity to grow."
