EP #9: Loving the fact
from 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? And if so, does that prime you for yet another binge? Many binge eaters experience this cycle almost to the T. One more question: What's the up-side? Episode 9 explores why it seems to make sense to hate our bingeing, but how—counter-intuitively—it may actually be better to love it. This episode continues the conversation we began in Episode 3 about how self-regard can be a key ally in helping you end your binges. Episode 4 focused on weight, Episode 5 looked at dieting. Episodes 6 to 8 tackled the urges to binge. The following episodes will cover the aftermath of bingeing and weight loss after the bingeing has stopped.
