EP: 857 - I thought stopping binge eating would feel exciting. It actually felt terrifying...

Every diet I went on felt like climbing Mount Everest. It took so much effort, so much willpower, so much pushing.Which is why this felt… different. And honestly? That scared me.I remember thinking: Do you even want to let this go?Because if binge eating went away… who would I be without it? What would I fill my time with? What would I look forward to at the end of the night if I wasn’t eating?Those thoughts are more normal than you think. You’re not crazy. And you’re not broken.There is often a real grieving and shedding process when you start letting go of the version of you that has used binge eating to cope, numb, escape, or soothe.And stepping into the version of you who feels calm and in control with food can feel unfamiliar before it feels safe.That’s why you may not need to push harder. You may need to loosen your grip. Because when you stop clinging to control, you may realize you’re not losing anything at all.You’re getting your life back. The life you prayed so hard for.JOIN THE REWIRE YOUR BRAIN TO STOP BINGE EATING 30 DAY CHALLENGECONNECT WITH LORNA:---＞ Instagram @lorna_bingeeatingcoachhttps://www.instagram.com/lorna_bingeeatingcoach/---＞ TikTok @lorna_bingeeatingcoach https://www.tiktok.com/@lorna_bingeeatingcoach
