The Done Bingeing Podcast

Loving the fact that you binge may seem like the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard. But before you unsubscribe, let me ask you this: When you binge, do you think things like, "This is disgusting," "I must be broken to eat like this," "I hate that I can't stop myself," or "No one can find out that I do this"? If so, do these thoughts make you feel ashamed, resigned, sad, powerless, and scared...

Welcoming your next urge to binge may sound off-the-wall, but it can be just what you need to set you free from your bingeing. Being afraid of your urges isn't freedom. It's prison. And you don't need to be afraid of them anyway. Freedom is when you're willing to allow an urge—to open the door to it, welcome it in, and actually look forward to its next visit. When you can stay neutral about your u...

The last thing you want to do is hang around with the urge to binge, right? There's no doubt that your urge is super-compelling.

And nothing defuses your urges like compassionate curiosity—you've got it...

Binge eaters feel a strong disconnect between how they want to eat and how they actually do eat. It can feel incredibly disempowering to feel like you're eating against your will. This episode uncovers the reason for that dissonance and begins to explore what to do about it. In Episode 6, I'm going to invite you to reconsider a deep-seated belief—that your urges to binge are beyond your control, t...

Binge eaters often resort to dieting as a way to lose weight or to control their eating. But dieting is also often a precursor to binge eating. In other words, dieting can trigger the onset of bingeing and dieting can be the go-to once the bingeing has started. The result? A vicious cycle of dieting, bingeing, and more dieting. In Episode 5, you'll find out why simply eating enough food may be all...

When you see the number on the scale, or on the measuring tape, or on a clothing tag, what do you make that number mean? And why should you care about the meaning you ascribe to that number? In Episode 4, you'll find out why how you think and feel about your weight really matters—and how to make your attitude about your weight work in your favor. This episode continues the conversation we began in...

In Episode 3, I explore the toll that shame takes on binge eaters, and about why it's worth it to let it go. One of the best ways to rout out shame is to shine a light on it and talk about what we've kept hidden—without apology. Stay tuned for some dirt on a cake, a garbage can, and a bottle of dish soap! I'll talk about self-regard as a better choice for ending binge eating—plus, it just feels wa...
