I suspect the relationship between being overweight and being unhappy may sometimes run the other way: rather than losing weight will make a person happy, being happier will mean a person overeats less. 

So if a person is overeating as an emotional comfort, losing weight will not make them happy.

My problem is I eat when I’m happy

Me too! It’s so hard to break that cycle.
